"I was diagnosed with Crohn's at 41 and have been taking this medication since then (approximately 2 years). It has worked perfectly for me, and I have had no flare-ups or side effects. I currently take 2 tablets 3 times a day. I now have my life back."

"Asacol had no impact on my Crohn's flare-ups at all. Until the biologic medicines came out, I had no relief at all. I suggest starting with a mild drug like this but to realize that there are so many more options available today if this does not help."

"My son has Crohn's disease and has done very well on the Asacol. He has no complaints and shows no side effects. He has taken as many as nine tablets per day at one time. I've been very happy with the results, reducing his bouts of diarrhea drastically."

"I was diagnosed after 22 years in the AF at age 42. I've had two side effects since starting on Asacol 10 years ago. I have refused to let Crohn's control my life, and Asacol was a big part of it."
