A small arrow pointing down

Budesonide 1 mg/30 ml Retention Enema is a ready-to-use liquid formulation contained in pre-filled enema bottles, designed for rectal administration. This formulation is primarily used for the treatment of ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, and proctitis. Budesonide, the active ingredient, is a corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation in the intestines.

It is crucial to understand that budesonide should not be used to treat infections or other conditions caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi. Patients should be aware of potential side effects such as nausea, vomiting, headache, and dizziness. Furthermore, budesonide may interact with other medications, including antifungals, antibiotics, and immunosuppressants. Therefore, patients should inform their healthcare provider of all medications they are currently taking before starting budesonide.

Healthcare providers should also be aware of the potential interactions of budesonide with other medications. It is important to monitor patients for signs of infection while they are taking budesonide. Additionally, patients should be monitored for signs of adrenal insufficiency, which can occur with long-term use of budesonide.

If you have any questions about Budesonide 1 mg/30 ml Retention Enema or its interactions, please consult with your healthcare provider or pharmacist. They can provide you with the most accurate and up-to-date information based on your specific health condition and medication regimen.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

The Budesonide 1 mg/30 ml Retention Enema is a pre-filled, ready-to-use liquid formulation designed for rectal administration. This method provides a convenient and hygienic way to deliver targeted treatment for a variety of inflammatory diseases of the lower gastrointestinal tract, including Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and proctitis. The medication is administered as a retention enema, which is held in the rectum for a period of time before being expelled.

Typically, the Budesonide 1 mg/30 ml Retention Enema is administered as a single dose, usually once daily. The patient should lie on their left side with their knees bent and their hips slightly elevated. The enema is then inserted into the rectum and held for approximately 15 minutes before being expelled. This process allows the medication to be absorbed directly into the lower gastrointestinal tract.

It is important to note that the Budesonide 1 mg/30 ml Retention Enema should not be used in patients with known hypersensitivity to budesonide or any of the other ingredients in the formulation. Always consult with a healthcare professional if you have any questions or concerns about this medication or its administration.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
