Hi. I'm new to the forum. I'm from the uk and have had Crohn's disease for 13 years. I had a colonoscopy today (which was sooooo painful even under sedation) they found two areas of active inflammation. I usually get prescribed Prednisolone which I call evil pills, however this time the doctor has requested Budesonide 9mg over 8 weeks.
Does Anyone have experience with the two drugs? I'm wondering if I'll get as many awful side effects with this one as I did with the Prednisolone.... or is this a less brutal drug? I always get bad moon face with Prednisolone for example and depression. But of course.... has the Budesonide worked for anyone?
Many thanks in advance xx
