    Abstract:
    Pulmonary symptoms, bilateral interstitial infiltrates and gas exchange abnormalities developed in a patient with ulcerative colitis treated with orally administered mesalamine. Improvement of symptoms and objective findings occurred after drug discontinuation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of lung toxicity associated with orally administered mesalamine.
