Budesonide is a glucocorticoid with potent local anti-inflammatory effects. Data show that budesonide sustained-release capsules have a definite therapeutic effect on topical treatment of Crohn's disease ulcerative colitis. It was developed by Calliditas and was approved by the FDA in 2021. It has not yet been launched in China, so patients still need to go abroad if they want to buy this drug.

Traditional glucocorticoids (GCs) are effective drugs for inducing remission of active Crohn's disease (CD). However, long-term and high-dose application of GCs can cause damage to multiple tissues and organs throughout the body, causing a series of complications, such as diabetes, hypertension, infection, digestive tract damage, cataracts, etc., and inhibiting the function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. At present, some new GC preparations have emerged that act locally on the intestinal tract and have less systemic adverse effects. Among them, budesonide has been successfully used in the treatment of CD.

Currently, budesonide sustained-release capsules are not available in China, and patients can only go abroad to purchase them. According to the editor, there are several versions of budesonide sustained-release capsules. Let me introduce them to you:

How much does a box of budesonide sustained-release capsules cost?

According to the recommended dosage of budesonide sustained-release capsules, patients who maintain clinical remission of mild to moderate Crohn's disease should use 6mg per day for up to 3 months, which means they need to use 2 budesonide sustained-release capsules every day. If the patient uses the German version of budesonide, one box will not be used up in a month, and it only costs about $1,500. From this point of view, using the other two versions of the drug only costs 940$ or 980$, which can be said to be very cost-effective.
