How does this medication work?

The exact mechanism of action of Sulfasalazine in treating inflammatory bowel disease is unknown. Most of the oral drug is not absorbed into the blood stream, but remains in the intestine where it does its work.

What results can I expect?

Sulfasalazine will not produce immediate effects, nor will it cure the condition. Generally the medication will need to be given for two or more weeks before effects are seen. At that point, your veterinarian may lower the dose. Do not lower the dose unless directed to by your veterinarian.

Chewy made my life so easy when my elderly dog needed his meds. Chewy contacted my doctor and sent the medicine very fast! It was well packed with cotton so the pills would not disintegrate. Thanks Chewy!!!
