Remicade is another treatment by traditional medicine that only attempts to manage or suppress symptoms of ulcerative colitis, it doesn’t address the cause of your colitis or any other inflammatory condition. Dangerous to use long term, it is important to look into any other natural treatment plan to avoid the toxicity of Remicade.
Ulcerative Colitis refers to an inflammatory bowel disease that occurs when the body’s immune system attacks the gastrointestinal tract. The symptoms associated with the disorder include moderate to severe abdominal discomfort, diarrhea with possible blood and mucous and multiple bowel movements. Symptoms associated with the disorder largely depend on the extent of the affected area and the location of the inflammatory process within the colon.
Remicade and Ulcerative Colitis
Patients diagnosed with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis might receive Remicade (infliximab) therapy when corticosteroid therapy proves ineffective. Remicade is a synthetically produced antibody that interferes with the immune system by preventing chemical messengers from attaching to receptor sites.
Patients receive treatment intravenously at zero, two and six weeks. Continued therapy involves dosing every eight weeks thereafter for up to six treatments per year. However, as the medication acts by suppressing the immune system, it is required that patients are infection free prior to starting treatment. Remicade therapy poses a number of risks that include a higher risk of developing certain cancers.
Alternative to Remicade
All natural alternatives to dangerous drug therapies like Remicade do exist. A planned step-by-step process of elimination of certain foods, the use of all-natural supplements to re-establish beneficial bacterial balances and restore proper chemistry along with all natural anti-inflammatory herbs make up the main parts of a successful treatment of ulcerative colitis.
After using this natural treatment and finding your symptoms have ceased, the decision then becomes how to stop using Remicade. Usual treatment intervals of six or eight weeks might become longer to prove to yourself that you don’t need the treatment of Remicade like you used to.
Your doctor will fight you on this and use scare tactics such as the drug won’t work as effectively again if you need to return to using it. I have never seen that happen with any patient who has used my natural treatment plan.
Once you see the benefits of this all natural treatment and also find a longer interval works well for you, one day you will simply not schedule another treatment. Mission accomplished.
