Summary

This study evaluates the decrease in steroid dosing for patients who have achieved remission on a full dose of steroids. Once a patient is in remission they will be enrolled in this study if they choose to decrease the steroid dosing.

Conditions

  • Eosinophilic Esophagitis

Interventions

DRUG

Dose

The outcomes of reducing to half of the topical steroid (i.e. fluticasone \[Flovent\] and Swallowed viscous budesonide \[Pulmicort\]) will be observed with regards to whether the patients continue to be in histologic remission.
