treatment for distal UC that involves only the rectum 1) topical aminosalicylates for two-three weeks; 2) rectal steroids; 3) oral amino and/or steroids
treatment for mild to moderate distal colitis PO aminos; topical mesalamine or topical steroids; if refractory, use oral steroids; (combining PO aminos and topical aminos better than just using one)
maintenance of remission of distal ulcerative colitis mesalamine enemas every third night; oral aminos
moderate to severe distal colitis treatment BID enemas, PO aminos+topical aminos
severe distal colitis treatment PO corticosteroids if failed aminos; taper CS once get remission and continue PO/topical aminos as maintenance therapy

Severe or fulminant CD treatment hospitalization for IV steroids, hydration; metro or cipro for fistulas; surgery; Azathioprine, Mercapto, Infliximab, PPIs + Octreotide for fistulas; cyclosporine, tacrolimus; Mercapto is best for preventing relapse of CD after surgical intervention
