Does anyone know any herbs or over the counter products that help with crohns disease?

Question

I was on prednisone about a year ago for a few weeks and it really helped a lot, but it was very harsh on my body / mood. i have recently been experiencing a relapse, and would like to try over the counter products and some natural herbs that would be able to help me. In the past i have used advil and chamomile tea to help, but they aren't very effective in helping the symptoms of crohns

Answer 1

I have had Ulcerative Colitis for 27 years now and have tried various herbal remedies. None of them work and I'm now on 6 Asacol tablets a day for life. My advice is to see your doctor to see if you can have an alternative to prednisolone.

The most common complementary therapies tried were herbal and nutritional supplements, probiotics and fish oil. Side effects and ineffectiveness of conventional therapies are primary reasons for seeking alternative care. Only about two-thirds report their alternative or complementary therapy use to their doctors, however.

The majority of these therapies aren't regulated as medications by the Food and Drug Administration. Manufacturers can claim that their therapies are safe and effective but don't need to prove it. Because even natural herbs can have side effects and cause dangerous interactions, be sure to let your doctor know before you try any alternative or complementary therapies.

NCCAM's findings are available on its Web site. You can also talk to information specialists at the center's clearinghouse by calling 888-644-6226 between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. Eastern time.
