NCIt definition : A steroidal acid that is a secondary bile acid, with cytolytic activity. Upon subcutaneous
administration, deoxycholic acid causes lysis of adipocytes and improves the appearance
of fullness associated with submental fat. Also, it may potentially be able to reduce
fat in other subcutaneous fatty tissues. Deoxycholic acid, naturally produced by the
metabolism of cholic acid by intestinal bacteria, is involved in the emulsification
of dietary fats in the intestine.;
