I am on Entyvio and have been since August of 2018. When I had my last scope in April showed that it is working to decrease the inflammation. That with my other medications seem to be keeping things "normal". (I'm on Imuran and Budesonide).
It took about 9 months for me to see results on Entyvio. I was rotating antibiotics as well. Hopefully you will see positive results soon!

Thanks for reply...are you discouraged to still have to take Imuran? Isn't one of the pluses of biologics is to get off other meds...fyi I took Imuran for years..it did keep me"normal" but not interested in longterm use...JB

I was in remission after my loading doses.
