Only oral Mesalazine?
So I was diagnosed a couple of months ago, and the NHS have been slow and not very clear in their communication with me. I was told through a letter that I was being prescribed 2g oral Pentasa (Mesalazine) daily.
After I finally managed to wrangle my GP into actually giving me the prescription, I have now started on the medication. (Still haven't heard anything from the IBD clinic mentioned in the letter).
What I'm worried about after being in this subreddit for a couple months, is that I've ONLY been given Mesalazine in oral tablet form, not as an enima as well. It seems like a lot of people use both types to actually get a good effect from the medication.
Have I been set up for failure with this medication? I know it takes a while for it to hypothetically work, but maybe its not going to be effective in just tablet form on its own.
*edit as I got mixed up with mg and g, it is 2g of pentasa I'm on
