Mesalazine for ulcerative colitis: evidence for use
Nurse Prescribing, 09/02/09
Greveson K – Ulcerative colitis is a chronic, idiopathic inflammatory disease of the colon characterized by periods of exacerbation and remission. Medical treatment aims to provide rapid effective relief from symptoms, modify the disease process and improve quality of life. Many oral preparations use multiple daily dosing regimens which can be inconvenient and affect treatment adherence leading to increased morbidity and risk of symptomatic relapse. This article examines the issues surrounding the use of mesalazine in ulcerative colitis, focusing on Mezavant XL (MMX mesalazine), a once–daily dosing formulation with patented multi–matrix system.
