Abstract
Bile acid diarrhoea is a socially debilitating disease caused by irritation of the colonic mucosa due to a spillover of bile acids from the small intestine into the colon. Studies estimate a prevalence of 1-2% of the adult population, but many patients never seek help or are misdiagnosed. Bile acid diarrhoea is treated with bile acid sequestrants, however, new research shows superior effect on reported symptoms with the glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist liraglutide.
