Abstract

As we enter into the era of 'personalized medicine', many of the recommendations of 'evidence-based medicine' require scrutiny and adaptation to optimize individual outcomes. Several examples of these discrepancies are exemplified by the topics of aminosalicylate use in Crohn's disease, early use of biologic agents that target TNF and the role of calcineurin inhibitors versus anti-TNF agents in steroid-refractory ulcerative colitis.
