Important Safety Information

Mesalamine Delayed-Release Capsules are contraindicated in patients with known or suspected hypersensitivity to salicylates or aminosalicylates or to any of the ingredients of Mesalamine Delayed-Release Capsules.

Renal impairment, including minimal change nephropathy, acute and chronic interstitial nephritis, and renal failure, has been reported in patients taking products that contain mesalamine or are converted to mesalamine.  Mesalamine has been associated with an acute intolerance syndrome that may be difficult to distinguish from an exacerbation of ulcerative colitis.  Hypersensitivity reactions have been reported in patients taking sulfasalazine. Some patients may have a similar reaction to mesalamine or to other compounds that contain or are converted to mesalamine.  There have been reports of hepatic failure in patients with preexisting liver disease who have been administered mesalamine.

The most common adverse reactions (≥ 5%) in clinical trials were eructation, abdominal pain, constipation, dizziness, rhinitis, back pain, and rash in adults; and nasopharyngitis, headache, abdominal pain, dizziness, sinusitis, rash, cough, and diarrhea in pediatrics.
