I've been prescribed Uceris 2mg/actuation Rectal Foam for my ulcerative colitis and I'm a bit nervous about the potential side effects. The foam is applied directly into the rectum, which is less invasive than pills, but I'm still wary. I've read about the possibility of serious side effects, such as allergic reactions, high blood sugar, and infections. Has anyone else had experience with this medication? How has it worked for you? Any tips on managing side effects or application? I'm really curious to hear from others who have used Uceris Rectal Foam. Also, does anyone know if side effects like fever and chills are common? I'm really hoping to avoid anything like that.

I was recently prescribed Apriso 0.375gm Capsules to help manage my ulcerative colitis. I've heard that it can be a game-changer for keeping the disease in remission, but I'm also a bit nervous about the potential side effects. Has anyone had any adverse experiences with this medication? I'd love to hear your stories and any tips you might have for managing any challenges that come up.
