The invention discloses application of tripterine in preparation of medicines for treating cholestatic liver disease. The tripterine achieves obvious effects of improving cholestasis and alleviating liver damage on intrahepatic cholestasis induced by mouse alpha-naphthylisothiocyanate (ANIT) and cholestatic liver disease induced by thioacetamide (TAA), can obviously lower levels of aspartic transaminase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in plasma of two models, reduce the cholic acid content in the plasma and promote bile excretion and has the effects of protecting liver and increasing choleresis; and when being applied to research and development of medicines with effects of protecting liver and increasing choleresis, the tripterine can create excellent economic benefits and wide social benefits.
