Crohns & Motofen

Updated

I had been Rx' motofen in the early 90's and took it for 20 yr.'s or more & when I could no longer find it did not notice withdrawal symptoms. I desperately need it. Have crohnes and have suffered chronic diarrhea sense I was 26, now 75. Its the only medication that works for me & believe me I've tried them all.

I have no follow-up regarding motofen. Nobody (Dr's) not interested in talking about it or crohnes. I have heard off & on that motofen will be back with no results or any indication of another medication to take its place. I do feel that if it does come back it will be so expensive that we e cannot afford it and the insurance companies will not honor it. So on with the saga. Will appreciate any insight and/or feedback.

I have nothing to report. I to no avail. Sorry to say. Discussed this with our current pharmacist and she said she never heard of it. This tells me something. I have heard that it is supposed to become available in Dec. I have heard comments like this before, and nothing came of it. If anybody hears anything please post it. I would sure like to hear some good news.

Nothing to report on the ongoing saga regarding motofen. Did ask our pharmacist about motofen and she stated she never heard of it. So much for that. I keep hearing its supposed to become available in Dec. but personally I don't believe it.
