Gall bladder sludge along with poylp
I have been diagnosed with gall bladder sludge along with small polyp/cal in a endoscopic ultra sound scan. Sometimes I feel a sensation under my upper right abdomen below my chest rib when I eat full meals or fatty food. The doctor advised weight loss with lifestyle modification. For the last two years I gained weight and became obese. I plan to implement a low fat diet along with a workout. My query is can I take udiliv tablet to support my GB sludge. How many months can I take the udiliv tablet.

Udiliv may not be required if there are symptoms of gall bladder sludge.
Because sludge can reappear conce you stop udiliv and you can't take udiliv for life long for just gall bladder sludge.

Since it is not confirmed in EUS that it is sludge or polyp, udiliv might not help. I would suggest to repeat an usg abdomen empty stomach, and if it is polyp, its size should be mentioned. Udiliv will help only in case of sludge
