Entyvio for ilieal crohns
Hi all,
I have moderate-severe crohns in my terminal ilieum. I was on remicade for 6mths which was effective at putting me in remission but caused lots of skin side effects so i went off it. I have started my first IV of entyvio and have not noticed any improvements. I am hoping it works given its safety profile. Does anyone have any experience they could share with entyvio for crohns? I've read it can take quite a while to kick in.
Thanks
Hi
. I can't personally speak on Entyvio, but I know that many medical sites mention that it can take 6 weeks for patients to notice improvement and up to 14 for the full effect (see here for example: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/drugs-how-long-does-it-take-for-entyvio-to-work). Of course, these are averages and hopefully you will experience some relief sooner. Also, hopefully others will chime in with their experiences. Best, Richard (Team Member)
