Description

Indications

Budesonide is indicated for Crohn’s disease, a medical condition characterized by autoimmune attack on the gastrointestinal tract lining resulting in symptoms such as pain, diarrhea, weight loss, and fever. Budesonide belongs to a class of medications called corticosteroids, and its mechanism of action involves the reduction of inflammation and swelling within the digestive tract for individuals with Crohn’s disease or within the kidneys for individuals with nephropathy.

Uses and Dosage

Budesonide is administered orally in the form of capsules. Typically, it is taken once daily in the morning, preferably at the same time each day. The duration of treatment with budesonide will be determined by your physician, carefully adhere to the instructions provided on your prescription label.

Strictly follow the prescribed dosage and refrain from adjusting it without medical guidance, neither increasing nor decreasing the amount or frequency of administration.

The capsules should be swallowed whole and should not be split, chewed, or crushed. In the event that swallowing the budesonide capsules whole is challenging, an alternative method is available. The capsules can be opened and their contents can be sprinkled over a tablespoonful of applesauce. After thorough mixing, the mixture should be swallowed promptly without chewing within 30 minutes, followed by a full glass of water.

While budesonide may effectively manage your symptoms, it is not a curative treatment for your condition. Your doctor will closely monitor your response to budesonide to assess its efficacy. If your symptoms are effectively controlled, your doctor may consider reducing your budesonide dosage. After a period of 3 months with controlled symptoms, your doctor may gradually decrease the dosage and eventually discontinue the medication. Regularly communicate your experiences and any changes in your condition to your doctor throughout the course of your treatment.
