I've been prescribed Mesalamine 0.375gm ER Capsules for my ulcerative colitis and I'm curious about other people's experiences. I've heard mixed things about the side effects and effectiveness. Anyone else on this medication? How has it worked for you? What side effects have you encountered? I'm particularly interested in hearing about any long-term effects or unexpected issues that came up. Thanks in advance for sharing your stories!

I was recently prescribed Budesonide 2mg/act Rectal Foam for my mild to moderate ulcerative colitis. I've been using it for about a week now, and I'm curious to hear from others who have experience with it. How effective has it been for you? Have you noticed any side effects? I've read about some serious ones, but so far, I've only had a bit of upset stomach. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!
