hi I have recently been diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis and i have been taking Mezavant daily. At first i thought they were doing the job however i have now been on these for month and half and starting to feel rubbish very tired and sore stomach when going to the toilet. I have not been given any dietry advice just been told to take medication. So any information on what not to eat/drink or any remedies for a flare up would be great 
Thanks
Roxy
Hi, I was diagnosed a year ago and also prescribed Mezavant 4 tablets every day, initially I saw an improvement although I felt quite sick for at least a month! It then seemed to ware off and a milder version of my symptoms returned. I saw a different consultant for a check up who did not agree with my dose and reduced it ??? I have taken 2 tablets for last nine months. I have reduced my veg/fruit intake ... I have always eaten loads off the stuff but the biggest difference for me has been cutting out crisps and chocolate .. which I also ate! I have to say cutting them out has made a huge difference. I think you will find everyone is different but usually the mess work as well as cutting something out, the problem is that "something" seems to be different for everyone!
Sorry should say Meds not mess😁
Thankyou i must admit i have found crisps to upset me especially walkers. Will just have to stop eating them altogether i have found the internet to be wuite contradictory to what fruit to eat and not to eat but so far fruit doest seem to be a problem. Thanks xx
