I am using Mezavant daily. I also used entocort enema's for about 2 weeks but it didn't stop the diarrhea. I then stopped using the Entocort enemas and tried Imodium x4 pills a day and now I can't go. On 4 pills I did get 1 formed bowel movement in the morning though. At night I feel like going but I can't even force myself to go and I get scared that I'll have the urgency I won't make it to the washroom from class.

I need an opinion.

You need to get back on the rectal meds...maybe ask the doc for mesalamine.

How much mezavant?

You're not treating the inflammation, only a symptom of the inflammation..,,

Are you using any probiotics?

Are you using any fibre supplements?

I'm on x4 pills of Mezavant. I ran out of VSL #3 DS about 2 months ago :( for conserving cash for this semester.
