Re: [crohns_n_colitis] Non Disolving Azacol

Hi,
 
I was warned of this problem when I first started taking Asacol.  If you have to go to the bathroom a lot the pills may not have time to dissolve in the digestive tract as they are designed to do.  I would check with the docs but it should stop happening when the trips to the bathroom slow down.  Maybe you could ask about asacol suppositories until he is feeling better and the pills stop coming out.  Hope that helps.

Subject: [crohns_n_colitis] Non Disolving Azacol

My 12 year old son has been on Azacol since his diagnosis 2 years ago.

All had been going well. Lately, however, he has been feeling sluggish
and has been going to the bathroom more frequently. After a recent
bowel movement, he found an undisolved azacol in his stool.

Has anyone had a similar problem where their pills simply went
straight through them?

Thanks for your thoughts.

thank you very much, ruth. i was kind of hoping that asacol helped reduce his trips to the bathroom....thus if they didn't dissolve, it creates an ugly circle...
