Remicade Review

I just found a study reviewing near all medical treatments of Crohns disease and it was interesting to find this:

"treatment with infliximab and AZA compared with steroids and later addition of AZA leads to significantly more patients in remission and off steroids at 26 wk (60% vs 41%)"

60% of those on Aza or it says earlier 6-mp And remicade are put into remission.

It also states that the rare case of fatal lynphoma caused by this combo has only 12 reported cases.
