Drug Details
Budesonide is a corticosteroid medication prescribed for treating mild-to-moderate Crohn's disease in adults and children aged 8 and older. It is available in capsule form and is typically taken once daily by mouth. While budesonide does not cure Crohn's disease, it effectively reduces symptoms such as pain and diarrhea by lowering inflammation in the intestines. This medication works by suppressing the body's immune response to decrease swelling and irritation in the bowels. Common side effects may include headache and respiratory infections, with weight gain being a less frequent occurrence. Always consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication to ensure it is safe and appropriate for your condition.
