Delzicol 400mg Capsules: My Experience and What I've Learned About This Ulcerative Colitis Treatment

#Ulcerative Colitis #Medication #Health

I was recently prescribed Delzicol 400mg Capsules for my ulcerative colitis. I've been on it for about three months now, and I wanted to share my experience. At first, I was nervous about the side effects, but so far, I've only had some mild stomach pain and gas. The doctor explained that Delzicol is a delayed-release capsule designed to target the colon directly, which makes sense given the improvement in my symptoms. However, I'm curious about others' experiences and any tips for managing potential side effects. Also, does anyone know if switching from other medications to Delzicol has been a smooth transition for anyone else?

Have any of you tried combining Delzicol with probiotics? I heard it can help with some of the stomach issues.

I've been on Delzicol for a year now, and it's been a game-changer. I used to have constant diarrhea and abdominal pain, but those symptoms have significantly reduced. Just be careful with the urgent side effects; the rash I got earlier was terrifying.

I had a weird rash and itching a few weeks into taking Delzicol. I was freaking out, thinking it was an allergic reaction, but my doctor said it was just a mild side effect. They prescribed something to help, and I haven't had any issues since. But yeah, be vigilant about those symptoms.

I've been lucky with Delzicol. No major side effects, just some occasional dizziness. It's manageable, and the relief from colitis symptoms is worth it. Just be careful and listen to your body.

I know everyone's experiences are different, but I really wish I could have seen a thread like this when I was first prescribed Delzicol. It's nice to get some perspective and hear others' stories.

I've been on Delzicol for two months, and it's been awful. I've had severe stomach pain, vomiting, and even some blood in my urine. I called my doctor, and they said it can happen, but idk if I can keep this up.

I switched from Asacol to Delzicol and noticed a slight improvement. The delayed-release feature seems to work better for me. Still, I get occasional constipation, which can be annoying.

This is my first time hearing about Delzicol. Is it really delayed-release? Does that mean it takes longer to start working?
