Usually steroids are used to treat IBD, together with hypoallergenic diet. Theoretically Atopica can be used as well for refractory cases, but it is not certainly a first line option medication. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
