Dipentum (Olsalazine) is used to treat a certain type of bowel disease called ulcerative colitis. After an attack is treated, Dipentum is used to increase the amount of time between attacks. Dipentum belongs to a class of medications called salicylate anti-inflammatory drugs. This medication works by blocking the production of certain natural substances (e.g., prostaglandins) that may cause pain and swelling. This medication does not cure ulcerative colitis, but it may decrease symptoms such as stomach pain, diarrhea, and rectal bleeding caused by irritation/swelling of the colon/rectum. Do not take this medication if you are allergic. Talk to your doctor if you have a medical history of asthma, growths in the nose (nasal polyps), kidney problems, liver problems, radiation treatment in the pelvic area. Take this medication as directed by your doctor. Consult your doctor for any possible side effects and precautions. If you experience any serious side effects, contact your medical professional promptly.
