Comparison of bismuth citrate and 5-aminosalicylic acid enemas in distal ulcerative colitis: a controlled trial.
An enema that contained a complex of bismuth citrate and polyacrylate was compared with 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) enemas for treatment of distal ulcerative colitis. The multicentre trial involving 63 patients was randomised and double blind with enemas given over four weeks; clinical, sigmoidoscopic, and histological assessments were made. Improvements were seen in both treatment groups. Cl...
متن کاملOptimum dosage of 5-aminosalicylic acid as rectal enemas in patients with active ulcerative colitis.
5-Aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), the active moiety of sulphasalazine (SASP), was given as a rectal enema to patients with mild to moderate distal ulcerative colitis to determine the minimum effective dosage. A double blind study was carried out using enemas containing 1, 2, or 4 g or 5-ASA or placebo for a one month treatment period. One hundred and thirteen patients with ulcerative colitis atten...

متن کاملWhat dose of 5-aminosalicylic acid (mesalazine) in ulcerative colitis?
Sulphasalazine was developed in the 1930s, initially for use in patients with rheumatic polyarthritis. However, its modest eVects in arthritis were soon overshadowed by the striking benefits seen when the drug was given to patients with active colitis. Controlled clinical trials confirmed the early favourable impressions and established a role for sulphasalazine in the treatment of active disea...
متن کاملTopical administration of 5-aminosalicylic acid enemas in patients with ulcerative colitis. Studies on rectal absorption and excretion.
5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) is a new treatment for patients suffering from ulcerative colitis but only limited information is available about its rectal absorption. We therefore studied seven patients with ulcerative colitis in remission, and five with active disease to determine acetylated and free 5-ASA plasma concentrations and urinary acetyl 5-ASA after the administration of three differe...
