Mesalazine- (5-aminosalicylic acid-) containing products are a well-known treatment for inflammatory bowel disease, often as first line. Myocarditis is recognized as a very rare possible side effect of this drug treatment. We present a case of mesalazine-induced myopericarditis that was successfully improved by immediate cessation of the medication.

Thiopurine-based drugs such as azathioprine and 6-MP are among the most common immunosuppressants used to treat inflammatory bowel disease, autoimmune hepatitis, various autoimmune diseases, and patients undergoing organ transplantation. The drugs are associated with various complications, of which one of the most serious is hepatotoxicity that may trigger non-cirrhotic portal hypertension. We report a case with this side-effect in a patient taking azathioprine to treat Crohn’s disease.
