Good, solid maintenance med, takes about 3 months to start working. Better med to be on than the biologics (Remicade, Humira), imo, so I hope it works for you. The dose you are on is quite low, so it can be increased if need be.

It's about Remicade, but pretty much everything said there could be applied to azathioprine (Imuran) as well :-/
