Entocort EC (budesonide) for Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Reidcaro - Be careful. Less than 2 weeks time is not enough time to judge the results. Don't expect a cure of IBD. Look at yourself as managing it. Realizing this at the start may avoid a let down each time you change medicines. 1 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

Entocort EC (budesonide) for Eosinophilic Esophagitis: I have an unexplained food allergy that causes my esophagus (only esophagus) to close up completely with food in it. Cannot swallow saliva, as it builds up and makes me gag and choke as it goes down my windpipe when it builds up high enough. I was instructed to take 9mg (3, 3mg capsules) by removing the pellets from the capsules and eating them without water so they touch my esophagus directly. No side effects that I notice and it makes me able to eat. A God send - a must have for me. 1 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

Entocort EC (budesonide) for Inflammatory Bowel Disease: I have only been taking this medicine for a week, I am being treated for inflammatory bowel disease and nothing else has worked. So far I think I am on the way to being cured. I am keeping my fingers crossed. After two weeks I have to report back to my physician as to my experience with this medicine. 6 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

Entocort EC (budesonide) for Crohn's Disease, Acute: This has been a miracle medication for me. The cost is a bit high, but the benefits out way the cost. I receive the same benefits as I do from Prednisone, however, with none of the side effects. It works very fast for me. I really think people who have to use prednisone should reconsider and try this medication for moderate flairs. I have had Crohn's disease for 33 years, this is the only medication (except prednisone) that has worked ever so well. 14 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

budesonide for Asthma, Maintenance: Pulmicort works for asthma. Weight gain is an issue, however. 0 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

Pulmicort Flexhaler (budesonide) for Asthma, Maintenance: Works great for my asthma and my allergies, but you must rinse your mouth out with water each time you use it. That is a pain but well worth the trouble. No side effects noticed. 7 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate
