The term “Gastro-Resistant tablets” refers to a type of tablet that is designed to resist the acidic environment of the stomach and dissolve in the more neutral environment of the small intestine. This can help to reduce the risk of stomach irritation and improve the absorption of the medication.

The usual dose of sulfasalazine for adults in the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases is often started at a lower dose and gradually increased. The typical starting dose is usually around 500 mg to 1000 mg per day, and it may be increased over time as directed by a healthcare professional.

It’s crucial to take the medication exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider and to follow any specific instructions, especially regarding whether the tablet should be taken with or without food.

As with any medication, it’s important to inform your healthcare provider about any existing medical conditions, allergies, or other medications you may be taking to ensure that sulfasalazine is a suitable and safe option for you. Additionally, regular monitoring and follow-up with your healthcare provider are typically recommended while taking this medication.
