A comprehensive treatment with the use of ursodeoxycholic acid has reduced the severity of hepatic steatosis, manifestations of dyslipidemia, the syndromes of cytolysis and cholestasis, the abnormalities of carbohydrate metabolism in patients with me­tabolic syndrome, and, consequently, has positively influenced insulin resistance.
