It helps reduce inflammation and suppress excessive immune system activity, which may help relieve symptoms associated with certain diseases. Depending on the patient's condition, a doctor may prescribe deflazacort as part of an individualized treatment plan. The uses of Deflazacort 30 mg depend on the diagnosis, medical history, age, and response to treatment. It should not be used for self-treatment or for conditions that have not been assessed by a healthcare professional. The medicine may cause side effects, including increased appetite, stomach discomfort, mood changes, or increased susceptibility to infections. Long-term use may require additional monitoring. Always take Deflazacort 30 mg exactly as prescribed. Do not change the dose, share the medicine with others, or stop prolonged treatment suddenly without consulting your doctor. Discuss pregnancy, breastfeeding, existing medical conditions, and other medicines with your healthcare professional before starting treatment.
How to use
