What is Mesacol OD used for?
Mesacol OD is an extended-release form of mesalamine used to treat and prevent relapses in ulcerative colitis. It allows for once-daily dosing, improving patient adherence and providing continuous anti-inflammatory action throughout the colon.
How is Mesacol OD different from regular Mesacol?
The OD (once-daily) formulation is designed to release mesalamine gradually over time, offering consistent therapeutic levels. This makes it more convenient and potentially more effective in maintaining remission.
How should Mesacol OD be taken?
It should be taken once daily, preferably at the same time each day. The tablet should not be crushed or chewed, as this would interfere with its extended-release properties.
Are side effects similar to Mesacol?
Yes, side effects such as headache, nausea, and abdominal pain are similar to those of regular Mesacol. Monitoring kidney function is important during long-term therapy.
Can Mesacol OD be used during flare-ups?
Yes, it is effective during both active phases and maintenance of remission. Your doctor will determine the correct dosage based on disease severity and treatment goals.
