The Effect of Colesevelam on the Microbiome in Postoperative Crohn’s Disease
This small pilot study demonstrated that patients who were given colesevelam, were more likely to be in disease remission at their 6-12 months colonoscopy review compared with those not treated. Furthermore, treatment with colesevelam may have a role in altering the microbiome to help maintain remission states in postoperative Crohn's disease. Larger mechanistic studies are now needed to confirm these findings and demonstrate statistical significance as well as investigate whether this benefit may be present even in those patients with 75SeHCAT negative disease.
