I have - many years ago. I was on 9mg/day of budesonide and I forget how much Pentasa. There should be no problem taking the two together.
The problem is that Pentasa has since been shown useless in treating Crohn's disease. Doctors still prescribe it, but the research is pretty clear - it doesn't help much if at all.
Where is your Crohn's located and how severe is it? If it's mild, budesonide is appropriate for short term use (a few months), and then re-assess.
