Hello
I was diagnosed with mild crohns 17 years and been on pentasa ever since. I recently done some blood, stool sample and colonoscopy, everything was positive and didn’t show any advancement of the disease since my original diagnosis. To my surprise my GI mentioned that she didn’t think the pentasa was doing anything to help control the disease and suggested I quit taking the medication cold turkey.
Has anyone else had a similar experience? Did you stop taking pentasa and gone medication free? If so what were the results?
Thanks
