I spoke to a physician this week who did research on remicade and stated that it demonstrated that it caused MS. He told me that his research was very quickly crushed. My daughter has been in...
Beesting I'm curios as to whether you've had the opportunity to try the wellbutrin, If you have Id like to hear your results goo or bad! UBOB...
Thanks for the info, The young lady has had upper and lower GI's and her GI is stumped as they were both negative as well as her labs. Celiac might be a possibility but I do not recall that celiac...
I have met a young lady who has all the symptoms of IBD ie: chronic diarhea , stomache pain and joint pain. But all scopes came back negative and all labs are normal. Is it possible that she still...
Hi Bella, Have you seen my post on wellbutrin as a TNF inhibitor its safe, effective and it is safe to take during pregnancy which was one of the things that exited my daughter when she started to...
Gumart1 you had mentioned the research study that was done a number of years ago that did not release any results and therefore you anticipated that the outcome of the research was bad. Often just...
Gumart1 You indicated that when you dont get enough sleep you flare, wellbutrin does act as a slight stimulant and may make sleep somewhat more difficult for shrCome people, however acting as a TNF...
Hi Walrus Yes this is legit, google buproprian and crohns disease and you will find many references, the question is do the drugs companies have any desire for there to be a safe and effective TNF...
We get generic buproprian and see no difference; as far as insurance goes we dont have any drug coverage which doesnt matter any way as it is inexpensive. Shiloah told me that she pays $15 a month...
The dose is typically 100mg 3x/day, it is extremely important that you use the immediate release as the sustained release may actually have a negative effect. Im glad to hear that your going to try...
Cupcakespinklgal The most significant side effect that my daughter had is that the wellbutrin had somewhat of a stimulative effect and she had difficulty sleeping for the a couple of months, that...
Congratulations Shiloh!!!...
Hi Shiloh Shilohs daughter is the six patient that I have helped get on the wellbutrin for crohns since my daughter was placed on it by Dr. Kast in 2003. All of those patients gained remission. I...
A couple of interesting links in relation to wellbutrin (burpropion) and crohns hope their of interest. http://www.disease-treatment.com/showthread.php?t=27430...
I do not quite understand your post, my daughter has crohns and also primary sclerosing colingitis PSC which is a progressive cirrohsis that affects some crohns patients. I hope thats not the case...
The most important thing to be aware of is that the sustained release does not seem to work. My daughter and the patients who have success with it typically take the immediate release at 100mg...
My daughter has been on welbutrin as a TNF inhibitor for 7 years with great results, she recently went to a new doctor who put her on lactalose for a unrelated issue, one of the side effects of...
What type of wellbutrin were they taking, what was the dosage?? I have not seen anyone taking the correct type and correct dosage not have sucsess. Most prescriptions for wellbutrin are SR (sustained...
Dr. Kast and Dr Aucshler do have the patent on wellbutrin for treating crohns, SO WHAT! there is no money to be made from that patent, if wellbutrin became a standard treatment for crohns the price...
Beave I would strongly disagree with you about wellbutrin being a weak TNF inhibitor, what evidence do you have to support that statment. You are correct that the research is limited on wellbutrin...
Google burpoprian and crohns and you will find many references. This treatment is safe and effective and inexpensive, as it is a TNF inhibitor like remicade it will never be a primary treatment...
My daughter has taken wellbutrin for her crohns and has been in remmision for five years, this might be a option that would help both with the depression and help you gain remmision. Let me know if...
My daughter has maintained remission for the past 5 years by taking wellbutrin, she has recently developed severe iron deficeny anemia and I am wondering if this could be as a result of the...
My daughter is also 17 and was diagnoised with crohns 5 years ago, she has been treated with wellbutrin. This is normaly used as a antidepresant but it also lowers TNF like remicade. My daughter has...
Erin Thanks for the reply. My daughter came home from the hospital a healthy happy little girl and without exageration their wasnt a moment that their wasnt a smile on her face unit two weeks later...
