However, the side effects of this drug i believe can be very potent leaving me as an individual unable to carry out daily tasks example wash dishes yet the majority of the beneficial factors of this drug are amazing in regards to this treatment; by a majority i do understand the vast amount of detrimental factors can cause additional illnesses and stress, without regarding this drugs large fee. Overall, I understand this drug to be beneficial for sufferers of crohn's disease yet it use is one to be carefully monitored by your medical professional due to the numerous side effects.

I have been using remicade for 6 years. At first it way very expensive, $18,000 per treatment (using 10 vials), now cost is 1/2 of that. Very satisfied with drug, but the infusion process is a pain since you have to get it intraveinously. The crohns is now in remission. The only dissapointing effect of crohns is the constant diahrea.
