SfRowasa

SfRowasa (mesalamine) is a topical 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) agent used primarily for the treatment of ulcerative colitis and proctitis. It works by reducing inflammation in the intestinal lining, thereby alleviating symptoms such as diarrhea, rectal bleeding, and abdominal pain associated with inflammatory bowel diseases. SfRowasa is typically administered as a rectal enema, delivering medication directly to the inflamed area.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does SfRowasa Work?

Mesalamine, the active ingredient in SfRowasa, exerts its anti-inflammatory effects locally in the gastrointestinal tract. It is thought to inhibit the production of inflammatory mediators and free radicals, thereby reducing the inflammatory response in the colon and rectum. This localized action helps improve the symptoms of ulcerative colitis and promotes healing of the intestinal lining.


Common Dosages

  • Rectal Enema: Each enema typically contains 4 grams of mesalamine in 60 mL of solution.

Typical Dosing

  • For active ulcerative colitis: The typical dose is one 60 mL enema administered once daily, preferably at bedtime. Treatment duration may vary based on individual response and clinical guidelines.

Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Treatment of active ulcerative colitis and proctitis.
  • Maintenance of remission in patients with ulcerative colitis.
