Yes, but you may develop symptoms to other foods after you wean off the budesonide (foods that may seem safe now), because it definitely masks reactions to various foods to varying degrees, and if you mistakenly introduce very many, then you will have to start over trying to figure out which ones are the problem, after weaning off the budesonide.

IOW, if you do that, be sure to keep records on which foods may have to be eliminated and then retested later.
