TRUD

THE LATEST TREATMENT AVAILABLE FOR MILD TO MODERATE ULCERATIVE COLITIS (UC) PATIENTS.

TRUD™ is a white enema bottle containing a thick suspension that includes sodium hyaluronate and is used to relieve the symptoms of mild to moderate ulcerative colitis.

TRUD™ is applied via the rectum and forms a protective coat over the lining of the distal colon and rectum. This allows the mucosal tissue to heal naturally which reduces the symptoms of ulcerative colitis.
