A member asked:
Do all crohn's patients have to take remicade (infliximab) in order to stay in remission?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Remicade (infliximab) as well as other similar medications, called biologics, are used to attain and maintain remission in crohns. The use of remicade/biologics is selective as they are not appropriate for all crohn's patients.
