    Ive been on this for a couple months. Recently ive developed muscle and joint pain. It feels as though someone hit me across the chest with a baseball bat. I have trouble sleeping flat too. I hate to stop taking it because its does a great job on my UC symptoms. I started on lialda but cant afford that.

    Has any one else having a reaction after you have been in the sun for awhile? I had been on Asacol for 20 yrs and I thought one of the side effect with a reaction to sun but I don't see that side effect on this drug. I still feel crappy the day after being in the sun. any one else?

    I have been on Delzicol for about 10 months now, I feel that the Asacolseemed to work better with no flareups...
