I have been on azathioprine (generic Imuran) for over six months and still have, as you said, minor-medium flares. I take 150 mg per day which is over what it should be based on my weight. My doc even tried me on 200 mg per day, but I couldn't do that. Hope yours kicks in soon. It has helped me, but not enough, and that is why I am also on Remicade now. Take care. Sorry to hear about all the problems with your diabetes! Love, Sharon ===== __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
