Yes, there are some medications that can help dissolve gallstones so speak to your physician about getting a prescription to see if this might help.
No.

There is a chance with medications but need to be used for 4-6 months. On the other hand surgery is simple most of the times and most commonly done procedure in field of general surgery
Rarely. There is a medication, ursodiol, that can help dissolve gallstones. It typically takes 3-6 months to work. Once you stop the medication, the stones typically come back. The medication can cause bloating, nausea, and constipation.
No, there are no meds that can do that.
Normally, no. But consult Functional Medicine. If BMI is 27 or above then consult Obesity Medicine.
Hello, this is a very common question, As gallstones are a very frequent Finding. Only a fraction of people will experience symptoms. Unfortunately, There has been no medication proven to eliminate gallstones. If you are having pain, nausea, and intolerance to fatty foods, surgical consultation is recommended. I wish you the best of luck.
