Abstract
- PreviewTraditionally, sulfasalazine and corticosteroids have been used to treat Crohn's disease. However, therapy has been expanded to include other drugs, and several newer agents show clinical promise. The authors discuss the therapeutic options now available and describe results of several drug trials. Despite the apparent benefits of newer therapies, caution must be used in choosing appropriate treatment.
