CORTIMENT® is indicated for the induction of remission in patients:

  • with mild to moderate Ulcerative Colitis (UC) when 5-ASA therapy is not sufficient1
  • with Active Microscopic Colitis (MC)1

MMX® technology enables targeted release of budesonide throughout the entire colon1,5-8

PRODUCT INFORMATION

 

  • CORTIMENT® maintains the efficacy of corticosteroids in mild to moderate UC patients, while minimising systemic side effects and doesn’t need to be tapered1,6,8,10
  • CORTIMENT® is an effective add-on therapy to your patients’ current 5-ASA to treat mild to moderate UC flares and for the treatment of Active Microscopic Colitis1,9,15
  • CORTIMENT® has a simple once-daily dosing regimen for UC and Active MC, which could help support adherence: take one 9mg tablet once daily for 8 weeks with or without food and no dose tapering is required.1

 

 

 

  • Systemic steroids are frequently overused in UC and have a poor safety profile11-14
