Hello there,
Sorry to say but I did not respond well to sulfasalazine ( although that was over 30 years ago and maybe the side affects are less now ) but I was also on prednisolone tablets too and whether it was a combination of the two I'll never know, because prednisolone taken orally I cannot tolerate. But I have heard many say that it is ideal for them. I have taken mesalaszine for all these years with good results. I am afraid it is rather "try it and see " I wish you Happy Healing all the same.
