Isoniazid

I experienced bloody diarrhoea after using Isoniazid 4 days later. My visit to toilet increased from once a day to 4-5times. All my current IBD medications(salofalk , budesonide) and Vitamin B seems useless to stop this bad bleeding episode..the doc required me to take Isoniazid to treat my latent TB for 1 month before switching it to Amjevita biologics treatment..2 more weeks to go..

I am concerned with the huge presence of blood loss each time I visited the toilet. Prior to antibiotics my stool is formed with budesonide steroid and only one toilet visit a day. Anyone with similar experiences of Isoniazid and tips to handle the diarrhoea?
