Medications

I was curious what medications people have been on for crohns. Side effects? How quickly you went into remission?

  1. Hi . There are quite a number of treatments for IBD and what works for one may not for another. This page from our editorial team goes into more detail: https://inflammatoryboweldisease.net/treatment and this article discusses medications: https://inflammatoryboweldisease.net/treatment/medications. I want to share with you this article from Elizabeth on remission: https://inflammatoryboweldisease.net/living/crohns-remission-hope. She is also hoping for remission and links to some articles that might be of interest. Here also is Laura's article on her remission: https://inflammatoryboweldisease.net/living/remission. Because of the fact that what works for one may not for another, many don't talk of a specific treatment getting them to remission. The point is to keep going to find what works for you. That said, if you have questions about a specific treatment, hopefully, we can provide further information on peoples experience. Best, Richard (Team Member)
