currently on 6.2 g/day of Balsalazide disodium, which had me symptoms free for over a month.

I am planning to start off with Bosewellia alongside 5-ASA drugs

Studies say one should take 1g X 3 times a day, and it is effectively equivalent to 6.2 g of Balsalizide.

What dosage should i go for, if i have to mix both of them?

Did the Balsalazide quit working or did you quit taking it?

I'm a little confused. Are you going to be taking Balsalazide at all or are you just going to do a 5ASA and Boswellia?

Are you talking about mixing Boswellia and Balsalazide and taking a 5ASA also?

I believe I have heard of the studies you mentioned but I would be reluctant to compare Balsalazide and Boswellia. After all, one is a drug and one is a supplement. Personally I think that is more like comparing apples to carrots. I doubt you could overdose by taking 6.2 grams of Balsalazide while also taking 3grams per day of Boswellia. Please be more specific on what exactly you plan on doing.

No I have mentioned in a different post, i missed my Balsalazide(Balacol) pills at home, while being away for 4 days. Took mesalamine(Mesacol in India) for 4 days.
within 4 days bleeding returned and this week its like just before. slight cramps 5-6 bowel motions with traces of blood and considerate mucous.

I havent taken 5-ASA before.
I am concerned about overdosing Balacol+Bosewellia
