Blenix is indicated for the treatment of ulcerative colitis, an inflammatory disease of the intestine.

Discuss your symptoms and treatment with a doctor online.

2. What you need to know before taking Blenix 1000 mg Gastro-Resistant Tablets

  • if you are allergic to acetylsalicylic acid or any other salicylate

  • if you have severe kidney and/or liver impairment

Warnings and precautions

  • if you are or plan to become pregnant
  • if you are breastfeeding
  • if you have liver or kidney problems
  • if you suffer from any lung disease, such as asthma
  • if you have had an allergy to sulfasalazine in the past
  • if you have a stomach or intestinal ulcer
  • if you have previously had inflammation of the heart (which could be a consequence of a heart infection)
  • if you have ever suffered from severe skin rash, peeling, or blisters in the mouth after using mesalazine.

If you experience severe headache or recurrent headache, vision changes, or ringing in the ears, contact your doctor immediately.

In case of appearance of any allergic manifestation (e.g., skin rash, itching) or cramps, abdominal pain, severe headache, and fever during the course of treatment, do not take more tablets and inform your doctor immediately.

Before and during treatment, your doctor may want to perform regular blood and urine tests to check the functioning of your liver, kidneys, blood, and lungs.

Kidney stones may occur with the use of mesalazine. The symptoms include pain in the sides of the abdomen and blood in the urine. Make sure to drink enough liquid during treatment with mesalazine.

Severe skin rashes, such as drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SSJ), and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), have been observed with mesalazine treatment. Stop taking mesalazine and seek medical attention immediately if you observe any of the symptoms related to these severe skin reactions described in section 4.

Mesalazine may cause a discoloration of the urine to a reddish-brown color after contact with sodium hypochlorite bleach in the toilet water. This is a chemical reaction between mesalazine and bleach and is harmless.

Children and adolescents

Information on safety in the use of this medicine in children and adolescents is limited.

Do not administer to children under 5 years of age.

Other medicines and Blenix 1000 mg Gastro-Resistant Tablets

In general, you can continue treatment with other medicines while taking Blenix. However, inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have recently used, or may need to use any other medicine, including those obtained without a prescription.

In particular:

  • medicines to lower blood sugar levels (antidiabetics)

  • medicines for the treatment or prevention of gout attacks
  • medicines that help with bowel movements (laxatives containing lactulose)
  • medicines to prevent blood clotting (anticoagulants)
  • medicines to reduce the activity of the immune system (e.g., azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine, or thioguanine)
  • medicines to treat pain and inflammation (anti-inflammatory agents)

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine.

There is limited experience with the use of mesalazine during pregnancy and breastfeeding. The newborn may develop allergic reactions after breastfeeding, such as diarrhea. If the newborn develops diarrhea, breastfeeding should be interrupted.

No adverse effects of Blenix on the ability to drive or use machines have been reported.

Blenix 1000 mg Gastro-Resistant Tablets contain sodium

This medicine contains 98 mg of sodium (main component of table salt/cooking salt) in each gastro-resistant tablet. This is equivalent to 5% of the maximum recommended daily intake of sodium for an adult.

3. How to take Blenix 1000 mg Gastro-Resistant Tablets

Your doctor will indicate the duration of your treatment with this medicine. Do not stop treatment before completing the prescribed course, even if you feel better, as symptoms may return if treatment is stopped too soon.

Strictly follow the treatment as instructed by your doctor, both in the acute inflammatory phase and in the maintenance phase.

For treating an acute episode of colitis,your doctor will normally prescribe a dose between 1.5 (one 1000 mg tablet and one 500 mg tablet) and 4 grams (four 1000 mg tablets) of mesalazine per day, which can be taken in one or several doses.

To help prevent further episodes,your doctor may prescribe a dose between 1.5 (one 1000 mg tablet and one 500 mg tablet) and 3 grams (three 1000 mg tablets) of mesalazine per day, which can be taken in one or several doses.

Blenix gastro-resistant tablets should be taken orally.

Andrei Popov

General medicinePain medicine7 years of experience

Dr. Andrei Popov is a General Practitioner with specialized training in chronic pain. He provides online consultations for adult patients in Spain and other European countries.

Dr. Popov understands that seeking help with weight-related concerns or pain that has persisted for months can be difficult. Many patients come to him after trying different approaches without feeling truly heard. During the consultation, the doctor creates a comfortable and supportive, non-judgmental environment where the patient’s medical history can be discussed in detail, questions can be answered, and the next steps can be decided together.

Weight Management and Metabolic Health

Dr. Popov can help assess overweight, obesity, and related conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, or metabolic disorders. During the consultation, the patient’s medical history, test results, current medications, and previous treatments will be reviewed.

If you would like to learn about possible medication options or have already started treatment, the doctor can assess your situation, review the effectiveness and tolerability of the therapy, and clearly explain its benefits, potential risks, and alternatives.

Not every patient requires the same treatment. A consultation does not guarantee a prescription — it provides an objective medical assessment and a plan tailored to your individual situation.

Pain and General Medicine

You can also consult Dr. Popov regarding:

* chronic pain, migraines, neuralgia, and fibromyalgia;

* back, neck, lower back, or joint pain;

* hypertension, diabetes, and follow-up of chronic conditions;

* review of test results, medical reports, and current treatment;

* preventive medicine and a second medical opinion.

How the Consultation Works

The video consultation lasts up to 30 minutes. The doctor will listen carefully, review the information you provide, and explain the next steps in clear and understandable language.

If additional tests, an in-person consultation, or urgent medical care are required, the doctor will inform you directly.

Dr. Popov’s goal is to make sure the patient feels heard and leaves the consultation with a clear understanding of their condition and the next steps they can take.
