Mild-to-Moderate Ulcerative Colitis: Your Role in Patient Compliance and Health Care Costs

Abstract

Periods of remission during UC treatment must be aggressively maintained to prevent relapse and decrease the risk of an unfavorable outcome. By controlling the risks and conditions that lead to therapeutic nonadherence and relapse among patients with UC, clinicians can increase the likelihood of long-term remission and ensure favorable long-term outcomes.
