Reply to "Continuous rotation every other week?"

Don’t ever go solely by instructions printed on a medicine bottle. Call your doctor to clarify how you should take any medication if there is any question. It may be premature to be on permanent antibiotics if you are relatively asymptomatic. On the other hand mild pouchitis can deteriorate over time if you don’t stay on top of things. Now that some inflammation has been seen you should be scoped more regularly as that will determine how your treatment should be adjusted over time.

I am on a permanent antibiotic rotation but at one point was going on and off and becoming more and more symptomatic when I went off. You may reach that point but doesn’t sound like you are there yet.
