I was wondering if there was a table or list of all the medication options there are for treating UC, broken down by anti-inflammatory, steroid, biological, etc.  I am trying to make an Excel spreadsheet just to know my options in case one stops working or if I suffer sideeffects.  I know my GI would be able to change me to another one, but I would just like to have a list that I can keep.  Thanks.

This isn't in table form, but it's broken down by category and you could easily make a table using it.

Perfect, thank you!

I did notice that Uceris (the new steroid for UC) isn't on there. But I think most of the other approved meds are.

fruitgirl - That's why I am starting my own list as well. I know those lists don't get updated as fast as new things come out. There are more medications listed on here. Xeljanz isn't listed under the biological tab either on the site, but someone mentioned it here. My list of options is growing :) Maybe once I feel I have a pretty solid list I will post it and see if others can add any that I missed or correct any mistakes.
