[Investigation of the choleretic action of febuprol on healthy test subjects (author's transl)].

The choleretic effect of 3-butoxy-1-phenoxypropanol-(2), Febuprol (INN), was examined in healthy volunteer subjects. In a dose range from 50 to 200 mg, the total bile is dose-dependent and excretion is significantly increased. The excretion of the bile constituents bile acids, bilirubin, cholesterol and phospholipids is increased proportionally with the bile secretion. The lithogenic index remains unaltered.
