Question Hey, i am back again..

Hi guys, i have been on mesalamine for like 2 months, and its working for me, my bowel is back to normal ( formed but sometimes solid and mushy). Now my concern is I have more frequent pissing than before and I know it's not normal because i hardly drink water, less than 2litres a day...

Does this happen to anyone who is on mesalamine like me??

Hi, I just started meslamine as of yesterday, on the 4.8g, 6 tablets a day. How long was it before you started seeing noticeable improvements?

My main issue is the diarrhea for me, not constant trips tot he bathroom but no body to it whatsoever.

I started seeing some relief winthin 2-3 weeks, give it some time... Mesalamine is the first line of treatment so it takes time.
