A minority of patients suffer from refractory disease, which means that they do not improve with a [[gluten-free diet]]. Pharmacotherapy is used if dietary modification is not beneficial. Pharmacotherapy include [[Steroid|steroids]], [[azathioprine]], [[Cyclosporine|cyclosporine]], and [[monoclonal antibodies]].

===Refractory disease===
 
A minority of patients suffer from refractory disease, which means they do not improve on a [[gluten-free diet]]. This may be because the disease has been present for so long that the intestines are no longer able to heal on diet alone or the patient is not adhering to the diet, or the patient is consuming foods that contain [[gluten]]. Pharmacotherapy is used if dietary modification is not effective.<ref name="pmid20332526">{{cite journal |vauthors=Rubio-Tapia A, Murray JA |title=Classification and management of refractory coeliac disease |journal=Gut |volume=59 |issue=4 |pages=547–57 |year=2010 |pmid=20332526 |pmc=2861306 |doi=10.1136/gut.2009.195131 |url=}}</ref>

* 1. '''Steroids'''

::* Preferred regimen(1): [[Prednisone]] 0.5–1 mg/kg q24h
 
::* Preferred regimen(2): [[Budesonide]] 9 mg q24h
Presently, the only effective treatment is a life-long [[gluten-free diet]].<ref>{{cite journal | author = Kupper C | title = Dietary guidelines and implementation for celiac disease | journal = Gastroenterology | volume = 128 | issue = 4 Suppl 1 | pages = S121-7 | year = 2005 | id = PMID 15825119}}</ref> No medication exists that will prevent damage, or prevent the body from attacking the gut when gluten is present. Strict adherence to the diet allows the intestines to heal, leading to resolution of all symptoms in the vast majority of cases and, depending on how soon the diet is begun, can also eliminate the heightened risk of osteoporosis and intestinal cancer.<ref>{{cite journal | author = Treem W | title = Emerging concepts in celiac disease | journal = Curr Opin Pediatr | volume = 16 | issue = 5 | pages = 552-9 | year = 2004|id = PMID 15367850}}</ref> [[Dietician]] input is generally requested to ensure the patient is aware which foods contain gluten, which foods are safe, and how to have a balanced diet despite the limitations. In many countries gluten-free products are available on [[Medical prescription|prescription]] and may be reimbursed by [[health insurance]] plans. More manufacturers are producing gluten-free products, some of which are almost indistinguishable from their gluten-containing counterparts.
::* Preferred regimen(3): [[Prednisone]] 0.5–1 mg/kg q24h and [[azathioprine]] 2 mg/kg q24h combination
 
* 2. '''Immunosuppressive drugs''' (Used in steroid dependent or steroid refractory disease)
The diet can be cumbersome; while young children can be kept compliant by their parents, teenagers may wish to hide their problem or rebel against the dietary restrictions, risking relapse. Many food products contain traces of gluten even if apparently wheat-free. Gluten-free products are usually more expensive and harder to find than common wheat-containing foods.
** 2.1 '''Antiproliferative agents'''
 
*** Preferred regimen(1): [[Azathioprine]] 2 mg/kg q24h
Even while on a diet, health-related quality of life (HRQOL) may be decreased in people with coeliac disease. Some have persisting digestive symptoms or [[dermatitis herpetiformis]], mouth ulcers, osteoporosis and fractures. Symptoms suggestive of [[irritable bowel syndrome]] may be present, and there is an increased rate of anxiety, fatigue, [[dyspepsia]] and musculoskeletal pain.<ref>{{cite journal | author = Häuser W, Gold J, Stein J, Caspary W, Stallmach A | title = Health-related quality of life in adult coeliac disease in Germany: results of a national survey | journal = Eur J Gastroenterol Hepatol | volume = 18 | issue = 7 | pages = 747-54 | year = 2006 | id = PMID 16772832}}</ref>

===Refractory disease===
===Dermatitis herpetiformis===
A tiny minority of patients suffer from refractory disease, which means they do not improve on a gluten-free diet. This may be because the disease has been present for so long that the intestines are no longer able to heal on diet alone, or because the patient is not adhering to the diet, or because the patient is consuming foods that are inadvertently contaminated with gluten. If alternative causes have been eliminated, [[glucocorticoid|steroids]] or [[Immunosuppressive drug|immunosuppressants]] (such as [[azathioprine]]) may be considered in this scenario.

Overview

A minority of patients suffer from refractory disease, which means that they do not improve with a gluten-free diet. Pharmacotherapy is used if dietary modification is not beneficial. Pharmacotherapy include steroids, azathioprine, cyclosporine, and monoclonal antibodies.

Medical Therapy
