Practices and perceptions of 5-aminosalicylic acid use in Crohn’s disease: a nationwide survey of physicians in Korea by KASID Guidelines Taskforce Team
This survey reveals a substantial gap between clinical guidelines and current practice in Korea regarding 5-ASA use for CD. Many physicians continue to view 5-ASA as a relevant option, particularly for patients with low inflammatory burden. These discrepancies likely reflect practical factors such as clinical experience and drug characteristics, which should be carefully considered before excluding 5-ASA from CD management.
