MFDS ingredient code M102338
Valsalazide sodium dihydrate is an anti-inflammatory agent used in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. It is mainly included in medications to reduce inflammation in the colon and alleviate symptoms. This ingredient works directly on the intestinal mucosa to suppress the inflammatory response.
This ingredient breaks down in the intestine and inhibits the production of substances that cause inflammation. As a result, the inflammation of the intestinal mucosa decreases, alleviating symptoms such as pain and diarrhea. It primarily acts on the colon, focusing on treating inflamed areas.
Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.
Unlike other anti-inflammatory agents, valsalazide sodium dihydrate is activated only in the intestine, resulting in fewer systemic side effects. Additionally, its specialized action in the colon shows direct effects on the inflamed areas. This distinguishes it from drugs that have systemic actions.
