Topic: Asacol


In the News (Wed 15 Feb 12)

  
  Monograph: ASACOL Mechanism of Action   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
The absorbed mesalamine is rapidly acetylated in the gut mucosal wall and liver and is excreted mainly by the kidney as N-Ac-5-ASA.
In the same study, analysis of the ileostomy effluent indicated that 7.1% of the Asacol mesalamine dose was absorbed or acetylated (5.2% absorbed, 1.9% acetylated).
For Asacol, a total of 1-3% of the dose is recovered in the urine as 5-ASA (mesalamine) and 25-27% of the dose is recovered in the urine as the metabolite N-acetyl-5-aminosalicylic acid.

 Asacol Anti-Inflammatory Drugs Online Cheap
Approved by the FDA in 1997, Asacol (Aze-a-call) is a man-made compound that is taken by mouth to treat inflammatory disorders of the colon such as ulcerative colitis, Crohn's colitis, and other inflammatory conditions.
The active ingredient in Asacol, mesalamine (5-aminosalicylic acid, also referred to as 5-ASA), is the major active component of Azulfidine (sulfasalazine) which has been used for over 50 years in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.
One of the unique features of Asacol is the fact that the pill does not release its medication until it reaches the diseased area.
