So, I went to my GI yesterday. He definitely thinks I have pouchitis.
He put me on a 10 week course of Budesonide (Entocort), which helped me get my pouchitis under control the last time.
He was going to have me try a Rowasa enema, but I need a quick fix because my trip is in less than 3 weeks!
I had blood work done about 2 weeks ago. That came back that I was anemic. My GI ordered more bloodwork. That bloodwork never came back, so his office is supposed to call the lab and see what's up.
I have a question about my medicine. I can't find the answer online. I can call my pharmacy Monday to ask them, but figure I would ask you all in the mean time.
What is the interaction between Budesonide and alcohol? I'm not a big drinker, but I would like to know if I can have a drink or two occasionally. When I'm away, we'll probably go to a club/bar one night and I'd like to have a drink, but don't know how it will interact with the meds.
