I’m currently on Mounjaro for type 2 diabetes. Recently started Stelara for Crohn’s. Also taking Paxil for depression and anxiety. My symptoms I had before have subsided.
Hi . I can't personally speak to this combination, but glad to hear that your symptoms have subsided. I can tell you that there is research finding that Paxil actually can help reduce intestinal inflammation: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10008943. I also want to let you know that we have a sister-site for type 2 diabetes at https://type2diabetes.com/. Hopefully others will chime in with their experiences and please feel free to keep us posted on how you are doing and to ask additional questions. Best, Richard (Team Member)

My Stelara injection was about a month ago. So next one in about a month. The past couple of days my symptoms have come back. I guess one day at a time again.

Hi . I did notice that numerous medical sites note that it can take up to eight weeks for Stelara to reduce symptoms, so hopefully you may still see some improvement. That said, if you symptoms continue or get worse, don't hesitate to reach out to let your doctor know. Fingers crossed for improvement. Best, Richard (Team Member)
