"I have used Dipentum since first being diagnosed 35 years ago. The dosage has been 500 mg twice a day. During this period, I have only had two flares. One was when, on the advice of my physician, I attempted to wean myself from the medication. I have had no adverse side effects. Recently, on the advice of my physician, I substituted Mesalamine. The side effects were severe. On returning to Dipentum, all side effects were alleviated. Medicines are idiosyncratic. Dipentum is worth an experiment."

"True, it works great. Had it for over 20 years, but now insurance companies do not want to cover it."
