title: Glycodihydrofusidate: biliary excretion and its effect on biliary secretion of the rat.
abstract: Glycodihydrofusidate, which has the same detergent properties a bile salts, is excreted almost exclusively by the bile duct after intravenous injection in the rat. As with bile salts, it leads to a significant (P less tthan or equal to 0.05) increase in excretion of lecithins and cholesterol (0.15 mumol lecithin and 0.026 mumol cholesterol per 1 mumol of glycodihydrofusidate excreted). In addition, this drug simulataneously inhibits excretion of both endogenous bile salts and bile pigments.
