Getting started on VELSIPITY
Taking VELSIPITY
If other treatments like 5-ASAs† or steroids aren’t working well enough* for you, ask your doctor about VELSIPITY.
†5-ASAs are 5-aminosalicylic acid derivatives.
*In VELSIPITY studies, people with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis had an inadequate response, loss of response, or intolerance to one or more of the following treatment options: oral aminosalicylates, corticosteroids, thiopurines, Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, or biologics prior to enrollment.

Discussing the safety information and potential benefits and risks of VELSIPITY.
Have a conversation.
Working with your doctor to determine whether VELSIPITY is appropriate for you.
Your doctor will request screening tests to help decide whether you're eligible to start VELSIPITY.
Those screening tests will include blood tests, as well as tests to look at the health of your heart (like an electrocardiogram, or ECG), liver function tests, eye and skin examinations.
Begin taking VELSIPITY.
Set a reminder to take VELSIPITY once every day! See how patients responded in clinical trials.
Some saw rapid relief at week 2 with less frequent visits to the bathroom from their UC versus those taking placebo.
Some people taking VELSIPITY at week 4 saw their UC-related bleeding start to improve versus those taking placebo.
