Indication: INDICATIONS AND USAGE
AZULFIDINE EN-tabs Tablets are indicated: 1 AZULFIDINE EN-tabs is particularly indicated in patients with ulcerative colitis who cannot take uncoated sulfasalazine tablets because of gastrointestinal intolerance, and in whom there is evidence that this intolerance is not primarily the result of high blood levels of sulfapyridine and its metabolites, e.g., patients experiencing nausea and vomiting with the first few doses of the drug, or patients in whom a reduction in dosage does not alleviate the adverse gastrointestinal effects. In patients with rheumatoid arthritis or juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, rest and physiotherapy as indicated should be continued. Unlike anti-inflammatory drugs, AZULFIDINE EN-tabs does not produce an immediate response. Concurrent treatment with analgesics and/or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs is recommended at least until the effect of AZULFIDINE EN-tabs is apparent.
Ulcerative Colitis
Patients with ulcerative colitis should be made aware that ulcerative colitis rarely remits completely, and that the risk of relapse can be substantially reduced by continued administration of AZULFIDINE EN-tabs at a maintenance dosage.
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis rarely remits. Therefore, continued administration of AZULFIDINE EN-tabs is indicated. Patients requiring sulfasalazine should follow up with their physicians to determine the need for continued administration.
Ulcerative Colitis
Adults: Children, six years of age and older: Adults: Children, six years of age and older: AZULFIDINE EN-tabs is particularly indicated in patients who cannot take uncoated sulfasalazine tablets because of gastrointestinal intolerance (e. , anorexia, nausea). If symptoms of gastric intolerance (anorexia, nausea, vomiting, etc. ) occur after the first few doses of AZULFIDINE EN-tabs, they are probably due to increased serum levels of total sulfapyridine, and may be alleviated by halving the daily dose of AZULFIDINE EN-tabs and subsequently increasing it gradually over several days. If gastric intolerance continues, the drug should be stopped for 5 to 7 days, then reintroduced at a lower daily dose.
