Abstract
5-amino salicylic acid coated with acrylic based resin was given orally to eight patients with active ulcerative colitis. Abdominal X-rays confirmed that the preparation released its contents in the terminal ileum and proximal colon. Differences between individuals were marked; the plasma 'concentration-time profile' reflected variations in the time taken for tablets to reach the terminal ileum.
