Headache with Lialda?

[spelunky]

Hi! I started taking Lialda a few weeks back but stopped because of severe headache. I didn't know if the Lialda was related, but just needed to get rid of the headache to work. I recently re-started the Lialda and the headache came back!

Will this go away with time? Do I need to just tough it out for a few more days???

Thanks.

Unfortunately it's a common side effect of the drug. Have you discussed it with your doctor? It might just go away after you get used to it or may be helped by changing your dose.

Hi there, yes, I went off of it to get rid of the headache then back on it and the darn headache came back. My doc said to just stop taking it.

I'm afraid that there is nothing left to take after this...but who knows. maybe try Budesonide again???

Anyhow, thanks for your help. It's good to know that it's not just me that is getting the stupid headache.:ybatty:
