Treatment other than steroid
GVHD-treatments other than steroids
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OK so the steroid Budesonide gave me relief from GI GVHD, however the side effects are intolerable.
Is anyone aware of any other treatment, or meds for mild-mid GI issues caused by GVHD so we think Closing of throat and esophogus and chronic queasiness?
(I am currently on Cyclosporine and Virconazole and just finished Cipro; all who multiply the side effects of the steroid on the body)
thanks
Donna
