Hi Balboa Chat Doctor. Colitis has many reasons to occur and thanks that you have undergone colonoscopy and biopsies. The commonest reason in Nepal is amoebic colitis and there are many forms of it. The tablet you say contains probiotic and piperidine, which need not be taken for lifetime, indeed may not be needed, you can stop and see the results and re-start if needed,
