Experiences with

Lialda

I have ulcerative colitis with inflammation of the cecum that may be due to lupus or meds. Not really sure. I’m advised to take something similar to one of the drugs questioned to reduce inflammation. I have ckd 3b and don’t want to make it worse. Trying to determine which is better.

After 6 mos. of taking Lialda I decided to go off of it but within days I had blood in my stool again so I continued with the Lialda for the whole year. I have had no noticeable symptoms of UC for 12 years.

Colonoscopy and CT scans show nothing major, GI doc put me on Lialda but isn't this for IBD? I also take Levsin and Bentyl but they don't do much. Tylenol and heating pad helps a little. I have a defecography and a sigmoidoscopy scheduled. He suggested maybe SUDD or SCD (segmental colitis).

I recently have been diagnosed with UC and have been prescribed rowasa (mesalamine enema) and lialda (mesalamine oral). Bleeding has reduced however has anyone had issues with white coatings on their stool? Is this normal or should I be concerned?

CARBATROL, FORSENOL, INTUNIV, LIALDA, MYDAYIS, PENTASA, VYVANSE, XIIDRA

My primary told me to stop my Crohn's meds (Lialda) and Lipitor. I immediately felt better. Bloodwork was done 6 months later and the ALP was 230, GGT 268, AST/ALT stable.

Taking 40mg of Prednisone and my daily Lialda pills. My bladder feels like it's under tremendous pressure, which makes me take several trips to the bathroom for a disappointing amount of urine to come out. Has anyone ever had this issue with a UC flare?

I am now on Lialda, with folic acid as well as Dexilant. Two of these medications have extremely high co-pays and there is nothing less costly to take. I supplement with probiotics. I still get bouts of the runs and up-chucking bile attacks. Anyone have some helpful cures

I use Lialda for the colitis and it stays in check. For the reflux I use Dexilant and I thought this would also remain in check. Recently had surgery for PAD in my legs. Actually just the first leg and I came down with a server case of reflux where by bile would constantly come up.
