Hi, Tablets do not do miracles in gallstones. Sugery is the only option in safe hands.

Your mother needs surgery to remove the gallbladder with the stones. 12 mm stones are not going to disappear with medication and she may have complications due to them.

The tablets tends to help further formation of stone. But once stopped, the stones are bound to recur. So surgery is the standard treatment. Do not delay it and get it operated in a suitable time by a surgeon.
