Treatment for ulcerative colitis depends on the severity and extent of your condition. Mild to moderate cases are typically managed with aminosalicylates, such as mesalazine, to reduce inflammation and maintain remission. Moderate to severe disease may require corticosteroids, immunomodulators, or advanced biologic and small-molecule therapies. In very severe or treatment-resistant cases, surgery to remove the colon (colectomy) may be considered as a last resort. Your doctor will recommend the most appropriate treatment after assessing your disease activity and response to previous treatments.

Yes, Vegaz OD Tablet is commonly prescribed as a first-line treatment for mild to moderate ulcerative colitis. It contains mesalazine (also known as mesalamine or 5-aminosalicylic acid), which works by reducing inflammation in the colon and helping to maintain long-term remission. Your gastroenterologist will determine the appropriate dose and duration based on the severity of your condition and your response to treatment.

Ulcerative colitis is a chronic condition that currently has no complete cure, so it usually requires long-term maintenance therapy to prevent flare-ups. Medications, particularly aminosalicylates (such as Vegaz OD Tablet), are often continued for a long time to maintain remission and prevent relapse. You should consult your doctor or gastroenterologist before stopping or changing any medication, as abruptly discontinuing treatment can significantly increase the risk of a severe flare-up.

Recurrent bleeding suggests a new flare-up of your ulcerative colitis, indicating that your current therapy with Vegaz OD Tablet (Mesalazine) may not be sufficient. You should contact your doctor or gastroenterologist promptly for an urgent evaluation and potential adjustment of your treatment, which may include a short course of corticosteroids similar to your previous flare. If left untreated, persistent inflammation can lead to anaemia, heavy blood loss, and an increased long-term risk of colorectal cancer.

Ulcerative colitis is a chronic, lifelong inflammatory condition of the colon, and there is currently no permanent medical cure for it. However, medications can effectively control the disease and help maintain long-term remission without symptoms. The only way to completely eliminate the disease is surgery to remove the entire colon (colectomy), which is usually done only in severe or treatment-resistant cases.
