Reply to "How long is this Pouchitis going to last?"

Rocket,

That is a fairly high dosage of cipro/flagyl and hopefully it will do the job. Normally you should start feeling relief within 2-3 days. You may want to take probiotics between antibiotic dosages although optimally and especially at that dosage of antibiotics, probiotics are more likely to be effective when you are off antibiotics.

If you feel relief from cipro/flagyl I would ask for a refill so that you can stay on the antibiotics through your scheduled vacation with your son, as there is a chance that the symptoms will come back once you go off the antibiotics. Good luck.
