I have very mild uc, currently no meds. in the past had accutane course (6months). can i take the 2nd but low dose course (2-3 months) if i have uc?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
In this case: my immediate response is "why not" HOWEVER I would check this out with the GI doctor who is managing your UC !! He/She will expect you to do this with ANY new medications etc Hope this is helpful! Dr Z
