Uceris is a prescription medication for mild to moderate active ulcerative colitis, a form of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It belongs to the class of drugs known as corticosteroids, which work by reducing inflammation in the intestines. The active ingredient in Uceris is budesonide. The drug is formulated to bypass the stomach and work directly in the colon. This localized delivery minimizes systemic side effects often associated with corticosteroid use.
