Abstract
Sodium nicotinate and nicotinamide, given both orally and parenterally, possess an evident cholagogic effect in healthy subjects. A temporary cholagogic and choleretic effect with decrease of the serum bilirubin level was observed in a patient with severe jaundice presenting a biliary fistula established surgically for the treatment of chronic hepatocholangitis.
