Effectiveness of Non-Budesonide Therapies in Management of Microscopic Colitis: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
    Drugs, 2023, Volume: 83, Issue:11

    Budesonide is accepted as first-choice therapy for microscopic colitis (MC); however, symptoms often recur and some patients may be dependent, intolerant, or even fail budesonide. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the effectiveness of non-budesonide therapies (thiopurines, bismuth subsalicylate [BSS], bile acid sequestrants [BAS], loperamide and biologics) for MC suggested by international guidelines.. We searched the CENTRAL, MEDLINE, and EMBASE databases from their inception to 18 April 2023 for the above-mentioned therapeutics in MC. We pooled the response and remission rates by medication using a random-effects model.. Twenty-five studies comprising 1475 patients were included in the meta-analysis. Treatment with BSS showed the highest response rate of 75% (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.65-0.83; I. PROSPERO protocol #CRD42020218649.

Contemporary methods for the diagnosis and treatment of microscopic colitis.
    Expert review of gastroenterology & hepatology, 2016, Volume: 10, Issue:1

    Microscopic colitis is a common cause of chronic diarrhea. It is characterized by non-bloody watery diarrhea with macroscopically normal colonic mucosa. Its specific histological characteristics confirm the diagnosis. Two distinct histological forms can be identified, namely, collagenous colitis and lymphocytic colitis. In collagenous colitis, a thick colonic subepithelial collagenous deposit can be observed, whereas in lymphocytic colitis, a pronounced intraepithelial lymphocytic inflammation in the absence of a thickened collagen band can be identified. Microscopic colitis occurs more frequently in elderly females and its etiology is believed to be multifactorial, although smoking and consumption of several drugs have been identified as risks factors for the development of the disease. The treatment is based on avoiding the risks factors and administration of oral budesonide.

Diarrhea in chronic inflammatory bowel diseases.
    Gastroenterology clinics of North America, 2012, Volume: 41, Issue:3

    Diarrhea is a common clinical feature of inflammatory bowel diseases and may be accompanied by abdominal pain, urgency, and fecal incontinence. The pathophysiology of diarrhea in these diseases is complex, but defective absorption of salt and water by the inflamed bowel is the most important mechanism involved. In addition to inflammation secondary to the disease, diarrhea may arise from a variety of other conditions. It is important to differentiate the pathophysiologic mechanisms involved in the diarrhea in the individual patient to provide the appropriate therapy. This article reviews microscopic colitis, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn's disease, focusing on diarrhea.

Pharmacotherapy for microscopic colitis.
    Pharmacotherapy, 2007, Volume: 27, Issue:3

    Microscopic colitis is a common cause of chronic watery diarrhea. Its etiology is unknown, but use of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, aspirin, and lansoprazole may be risk factors for developing the disorder. Therapy is directed primarily at resolving the symptoms of microscopic colitis; bismuth subsalicylate, aminosalicylates, traditional corticosteroids, and budesonide have been evaluated. Compared with other therapies, budesonide has the strongest evidence for effectiveness in decreasing the volume and frequency of stools and improving the quality of life; it is, however, a costly drug. We reviewed all available primary English-language literature accounts of treatment of microscopic colitis. We performed searches of MEDLINE and International Pharmaceutical Abstracts, as well as reviewing the bibliographies from key articles, to procure pertinent reports. Microscopic colitis can be successfully treated with pharmacotherapy. Based on cost and adverse-effect profiles, antidiarrheals and bismuth subsalicylate are reasonable first options, but many patients may require budesonide to achieve remission.
