Budesonide, marketed under the brand name Entocort, is primarily used to treat mild to moderate Crohn's disease affecting the ileum and/or ascending colon. It is a corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation in the digestive tract, thereby alleviating symptoms such as pain and diarrhea. Additionally, it may be used for other inflammatory bowel conditions as prescribed by a healthcare provider.
