Mode of treatment choice by the patients with Inflammatory bowel disease

Abstract

Background: Patients with IBD often face complex treatment regimens, oral or parenteral drug administration. Patients prefer oral treatments when both options are available and equally effective1 for their convenience, and reducing the need for frequent clinical visits2 . Patients often report that parenteral treatments cause discomfort, which influences their desire to avoid these forms when possible3 . However, there is lack of, evidence to preference within modern lifestyle and protean choices in the current treatment landscape of IBD.
