First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 20 times

Summary

This study tests whether adding a medicine called ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) to standard light therapy helps newborns with jaundice get better faster. About 70 full-term or near-full-term babies will be randomly assigned to receive either light therapy alone or light therapy plus UDCA. The goal is to see if UDCA can lower bilirubin levels more quickly and shorten hospital stays.
