Generic Name: Rinvoq for Crohn's Disease (upadacitinib)
Rinvoq for Crohn's Disease Reviews
"So far Rinvoq has worked well for me. I am still in the first 12 weeks of treatment and taking the 45 mg dosage. I noticed a difference almost immediately as it got rid of all the joint pain I was having. I have Crohn's and started with my first ever flare about a year and a half ago. 4 colorectal surgeries later, I am hoping Rinvoq will get things healed up. It's been a long and rough ride for my first ever flare. Wouldn't wish Crohn's on my worst enemy. I have noticed more body odor than is normal for me and some teeth staining. Not sure if they are related or not to the Rinvoq."
"Taking for just two weeks now after 3 other IV drugs failed. So far so good. No ill effects so far. So far, it seems to keep me in remission. Time will tell. I really like taking a daily pill vs an IV every 8 weeks."
"I love this drug. I use it in combination with Stelara. It made me feel better in a few days at 15 mg... they upped it to 30 mg to help heal my skin cyst condition. Been in remission for 6 months with it now. No side effects. Highly recommend all you Chronies to try it!"
"I have been taking this medicine for a year now after having my first Crohn's flare ever. It involved fistulas, infections, pain, 4 surgeries in 11 months, and 4 different medications. Just had a colonoscopy this week. The Gastroenterologist says there are absolutely no signs of Crohn's anymore. Not as in remission, but cured. I am skeptical, but I do feel much better since being on Rinvoq. When I was on Remicade, it made every joint in my body hurt. I felt like a 90-year-old woman. Praying it continues to work."
