1. What is Inteb and what is it used for
Inteb reduces inflammation in the small intestine and the first part of the large intestine.
Inteb is used for the treatment of Crohn's disease of the small intestine and the first part of the large
intestine. Crohn's disease is an inflammatory bowel disease that causes symptoms such as diarrhea, fever
and stomach pain.
Inteb is used to treat microscopic colitis, a disease that causes chronic inflammation of the colon
and often leads to watery diarrhea. Inteb can be used to treat the disease in the active phase as well as in severe cases to prevent relapses (maintenance treatment).
2. What you need to know before taking Inteb
Do not take Inteb
- if you are allergic to budesonide or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Inteb if you have:
- an infection caused by bacteria, fungi or viruses
- liver problems
- osteoporosis
- gastric ulcer
- hypertension
- diabetes (even if there is a family history of diabetes)
- any eye disease (even if there is a family history of eye diseases)
Chickenpox and measles may be more problematic when you take Inteb. Therefore, if you have been infected
contact your doctor.
Contact your doctor if you experience blurred vision or other visual disturbances.
When switching from a cortisone tablet therapy to Inteb or when stopping taking Inteb, you may
temporarily experience symptoms such as skin rash, runny nose and muscle pain.
Contact your doctor if you experience any of the above effects or if you are worried about headache, fatigue
or nausea.
If you are to undergo surgery, you must inform your doctor that you are taking Inteb as for
a while you may need additional treatment with cortisone tablets.
Children and adolescents
Regular monitoring of height growth in children and adolescents undergoing
treatment with Inteb is recommended.
Other medicines and Inteb
Tell your doctor if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other
medicines.
Some medicines can influence or be influenced by treatment with Inteb, for example:
- some medicines prescribed for fungal infections (e.g. itraconazole)
- medicines used to treat Cushing's syndrome - when the body produces an excess of cortisol (ketoconazole-based tablets)
- medicines for menopausal symptoms (oestrogens) and pregnancy (contraceptive pills)
- carbamazepine (for epilepsy)
- some medicines may increase the effects of Inteb and your doctor may need to carefully monitor your therapy if you are taking these medicines (e.g. some medicines for the treatment of HIV: ritonavir (or other protease inhibitors), cobicistat).
Inteb can affect a test performed to check the function of the pituitary gland, the so-called ACTH
stimulation test, giving falsely low results.
Inteb with food and drink
Taking grapefruit juice should be avoided during therapy with Inteb because grapefruit can
increase the absorption of budesonide from the intestine (juices from other fruits such as orange or apple do not have
an effect on the absorption of budesonide).

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, suspect you are pregnant or are planning a pregnancy,
ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.
There is a risk that the medicine may have an effect on the fetus. Therefore, always consult your doctor before taking
Inteb if you are pregnant.
Budesonide is excreted in breast milk. Talk to your doctor before taking Inteb regularly during
breastfeeding.
