Hi all 👋
Have been put on
Pentasa
2g daily for 3 months to try and stabilise, am 3 weeks in with little affect so far. Hoping it starts to kick in soon. It all started after a night out on the beer and a kebab, I've never been the same since. 😩

Thyroid - updated bloods - advice
I was taking Esomeprazole and
Pentasa
(prescribed for anti inflammatory by gastroenterologist at Marsden for enteritis) have now stopped that medication probably 3 weeks prior to test. Just wondered if my cholesterol liver had any correlation to my thyroid? If it’s autoimmune? Many thanks!

Finally found some relief for IC
Hi everyone, I’m 48 & was diagnosed with IC & Hunners ulcers after having a bladder lift in 2005 & having the mesh fall apart & get stuck in my pelvic floor wall. The mesh was of course toxic and did a number on my bladder as well. I tried EVERYTHING you could imagine & kept track of when pain would

In short my daughter has IBD which is under control at the moment with
Pentasa
and Steroids. She is working and living abroad but is coming home for August. During the time since diagnosis (April) she has lost quite a lot of weight.

request for feedback for starting medication
Taken
Pentasa
& low dose LDN, apparently need to make a change. Symptoms have been relatively minimal but stricture has worsened. Especially interested in any thoughts re. Cimza (certolizumab). Thanks!

Pentasa sun rash
My daughter has been taking
Pentasa
for a few weeks and it has been very effective. Last weekend she sat in the sun having coffee and the following day had an angry rash on her neck and forearms.

pregnancy and Pentasa
The IBD team have represcribed me
Pentasa
suppositories and say it’s safe in pregnancy. When you goggle seems to be some mixed evidence. Is it safer for me to take and keep the flare up at bay? Thank you

Please have blood tests if taking medication - Pentasa.
I stopped
Pentasa
and my kidneys improved to 20%. They have slowly deteriorated and I’m back to 9% again. I’m now starting Peritoneal Dialysis as I feel so awful.

Radiation proctitis....treatment

Pentasa

For the last 15 years I have managed my symptoms well with
Pentasa
. Prior to this I was on Azathoprine but had to stop taking it due to been diagnosed with a malignant melanoma which had spread to my lymph nodes in 2007.
