Azulfidine is a medication that has anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial qualities. It is a mixture of 5-aminosalicylic acid and sulfapiridin. The medication is absorbed in small amounts from the colon's lumen and then evenly distributed within the connective tissue. Because Azulfidine is more readily absorbed (up to 30% of the dose), it primarily has a broad anti-inflammatory effect.
According to the National Library of Medicine, Azulfidine is prescribed for the following conditions:
There are also non-FDA approved (off-label) indications:
See your physician before using the medication.
Azulfidine is given with 240-250 ml of drinking water, preferably before meals.
Side effects frequently occur when the medication builds up a high concentration in the blood plasma. Patients with delayed occurrence of sulfapiridin acetylation rate may experience such a condition. Itchy skin, fever, headaches, gastrointestinal tract issues, and erythema are common adverse effects of the medication.
Pregnancy-related use of Azulfidine is permitted, but only in extreme cases. Expectant mothers are advised to select the lowest effective dosage. Breastfeeding is discontinued if medication is required because it is well excreted in breast milk.
Digoxin and folic acid are less absorbed when taking Azulfidine, which strengthens the anticoagulant agents.
Please keep Azulfidine at a temperature of no more than 25°C in a dark place.
I live in Regina. Can I enter my postal code before ordering to see whether these tablets can be shipped to me?
Yes. Enter your Regina postal code and delivery address at checkout to check the options available for your order. Availability can vary by destination, so it should be confirmed before payment.
My package arrived in Guelph after sitting outside in very cold weather. What should I check before I take the tablets?
Check that the container is intact, dry, and tightly closed, and that the tablets are not cracked, discoloured, wet, or otherwise damaged. Store them at 20°C to 25°C; because the actual temperature and duration of cold exposure are unknown, do not use tablets from a compromised package until the issue is checked.
I'm in Iqaluit and deliveries can be limited here. How can I find out whether you can send this medicine to my address?
Please enter your complete Iqaluit address and postal code at checkout to check whether shipping is available for your destination. We cannot confirm availability for every remote route in advance.
I have used a brand-name sulfasalazine product before. What does "bioequivalent" mean when I'm comparing it with a generic?
For a generic medicine, bioequivalent means it has been shown to deliver the active ingredient into the body at a comparable rate and extent to its reference product under the required testing standards. That term does not mean every supplied product has the same manufacturer, appearance, or inactive ingredients.
I have diabetes and my clinic checks my blood glucose during routine bloodwork. Can sulfasalazine affect the test result?
Sulfasalazine or its metabolites can interfere with certain NAD(H)-dependent laboratory glucose assays and may produce a misleading result. Tell the clinic or laboratory that you take sulfasalazine so an unexpected reading can be confirmed with an appropriate method.

I opened the order for sulfasalazine and found the inner packaging carefully secured. The medicine arrived undamaged.
Good value.
The outer packaging for my Azulfidine order was neutral. Nothing on it advertised the contents.
Happy to have received the order.
