Deflacort 30mg is a corticosteroid medication containing deflazacort. It is used primarily for treating inflammatory conditions, autoimmune disorders, and certain types of muscle diseases like Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). It works by reducing inflammation and suppressing the immune system to prevent further damage in conditions such as arthritis, asthma, and organ transplant rejection. It is typically prescribed for both adults and children (aged 2 years and older).
This medication can cause side effects such as weight gain, mood swings, and increased blood sugar. Long-term use requires careful monitoring due to potential risks like osteoporosis and increased susceptibility to infections.
Always take Deflacort under medical supervision and follow your healthcare provider’s guidelines regarding dosage and duration of use.
