Our studies on phosphatide, a food concentrate, produced as a by-product during the extraction of an edible oil in the oil-extraction plants, showed its high efficacy in patients (n = 52) with abnormalities of the hepatobiliary system. The drug having more than 40 weight percent of phosphorus-containing lipids appeared to be efficacious not only in respect of the subjective status of the patients but also the functional state of the liver and paraments characterizing lipid metabolism.
