Budesonide orodispersible tablets for maintenance of remission in eosinophilic oesophagitis
Overview
Medicines in Practice is a series of evidence–based publications specifically designed to support stakeholder medicines optimisation services. The series aims to maximise health gains through the optimum use of medicines, by influencing and changing prescribing behaviour.
Budesonide orodispersible tablets (Jorveza) are indicated for induction and maintenance of remission in adults with eosinophilic oesophagitis.
