Pentasa is known to have anxiety as a side effect, so you are not alone. I was fortunate to have minimal side effects while on Pentasa (though also minimal efficacy), but have had it on other meds. If it gets too bad, your doc can prescribe anti-anxiety meds, or they can switch meds for the IBD (though Pentasa generally has lower side effects than most others for long term use).
