Lialda™ (mesalamine)

“Mesalamine has been associated with a syndrome that may be difficult to distinguish from an ulcerative colitis flare-up. If you experience cramping, abdominal pain, bloody diarrhea, fever, headache or rash, prompt withdrawal is required. Some patients taking mesalamine have reported heart-related hypersensitivity reactions, such as inflammation of the heart muscle and inflammation of the lining of the heart. Tell your doctor if you have problems with your liver or kidneys.”

Whoa! If you are unfamiliar with Lialda™, Lialda™ is a new UC treatment option approved by the FDA.

We love the word ‘new’ as it applies to digestive treatment options. All kidding aside, this is the type of “new technology” that makes it to the medicine cabinet of your very bathroom, approved by the FDA and prescribed by doctors who were schmoozed to a nice lunch or dinner, given a print out about how it can help(?) UC patients. All sounds great till you have to “promptly withdraw”.

Prefer the less intrusive, less risky road? We do too… If you’re not on the fence about your health & Ulcerative Colitis, consider SEROVERA® AMP 500 — an all natural, drug-free, risk-free, dietary supplement that may help reduce flare-ups and achieve remission.
