Ulcerative Colitis, Active
"I have found that it works great for my flare ups. It is to be retained all night, which isn&#039;t difficult as long as you do a full tap water bag enema first, empty, wait an hour or so and then inject the Rowasa enema.  If you just simply use the Rowasa with a full colon, it becomes quite difficult to retain. If you do the Rowasa immediately after the big enema, you have absorbed too much water and not the medicine of the Rowasa. Bottom line is this: It&#039;s no fun, but clean yourself out with at least one full bag enema first, wait and hour and then put it in. This always works for me. I hope it helps."
