Inflammatory bowel disease [guide for patients]

At Antidote, we hear from a steady stream of people looking to participate in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) clinical research studies. It’s with these individuals in mind that we have created this guide for patients (and their loved ones) in order to answer some of the most common questions we are asked about IBD and medical research:

• What is IBD? Is it different from IBS?
• Are Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis different conditions?
• What are the symptoms of IBD and how is it diagnosed?
• Are there complications and risk factors for people living with IBD?
• Are treatments available? How can one best manage symptoms?
• What kinds of support are available for patients or their loved ones?
• What kinds of developments are happening on the research front?
• Is it worth participating in a clinical trial or research study for IBD?

In this guide for patients, we explore all things IBD. Download it now to learn about the key aspects of IBD.
