• The Cochrane database = 5 RCTs
• 3 x Budesonide 9mg od tapering over 8/52– significant symptomatic and histological benefit– anecdotal evidence suggesting long term remission.
• 1 x Bismuth subsalicylate (n=12), three chewable 262mg tablets tds for 8/52– symptomatic and histological improvement– with resolution of the collagenous band– Pepto-Bismol has three different potential modes of action as an antibacterial, anti-
inflammatory and anti-diarrhoeal – Denol does not have the subsalicylate component
• 1 x High dose Prednisolone (50mg) – can provide symptom relief, but often without histological improvement– relapses are common
• Given the evidence, we advocate using • 1st and 2nd line therapy = Budesonide and bismuth subsalicylate (Pept-Bismol) • 3rd line = consider trying mesalazine in LC and cholestyramine in CC

• 11stst Degree relatives = 5%-15% Degree relatives = 5%-15%• 2nd Degree relatives no increased prevalence
• 11.4% of these would be missed using IgA EMA in isolation and so an algorithm has been devised
• Coeliac disease can occur in antibody negative individuals and that biopsy is recommended if there is a high index of suspicion.
