As some of you know I have ulcerative colitis. I wasn't taking my Colazal consistently because it's expensive. Even with my insurance co-pay it still costs me to $100 to fill the prescription every couple of months. My doctor asked me if I wanted to try to something different and I said sure. He put me on sulfasalizine and recent results haven't been good. I'm suffering from a few of the side effects, the worst being fatigue. I slept for 12 hours Friday and still feel like I haven't got any sleep. I'm thinking it may be best to switch back to the colazal, it should be easier to pay for since I paid off a loan and two credit cards last month.
I was wondering if anyone else has ever had side effects from taking sulfasalazine?
