Deflazacort Tablets 30 mg

Description

Deflazacort Tablets 30 mg are a type of drug that belongs to a group of drugs called steroids. They are mainly used to treat Duchenne muscular dystrophy in adults and children who are at least two years old. This condition means that the immune system is not working properly and cannot tell the difference between cells from our body and cells from outside. This leads to diseases such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy, psoriasis, and arthritis.

Deflazacort Tablets 30 mg are medicines that help to lower the immune system’s activity by attaching to immune cells and controlling their abnormal behaviour. In simple words, they basically stop the receptors that cause abnormal immune responses, so that our own cells and organs are not harmed. These tablets fight inflammation and autoimmune diseases by stopping the production of certain chemicals called cytokines. They can help with joint problems like arthritis and skin conditions like psoriasis. Additionally, stem cells are important for helping with organ transplants and treating muscle problems like Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Benefits: 

Deflazacort Tablets 30 mg offer several therapeutic benefits in medical conditions where they are prescribed:

Inflammation Control: Deflazacort is a corticosteroid medication that effectively reduces inflammation in various parts of the body. It is beneficial in managing autoimmune diseases and conditions associated with excessive inflammation.

Autoimmune Disorders: These tablets are particularly useful in autoimmune diseases where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues and organs. Deflazacort helps suppress this immune response, reducing damage and symptoms. It is often prescribed for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and multiple sclerosis.

Muscle Disorders: Deflazacort is an essential treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) in both adults and children above two years of age. It helps improve muscle strength and function in individuals with this degenerative muscle disease.

Allergic Reactions: In severe allergic reactions or anaphylaxis, Deflazacort can be used to reduce inflammation quickly and prevent life-threatening complications.

Respiratory Conditions: It may be prescribed for certain respiratory conditions, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), to alleviate inflammation in the airways and improve breathing.

Dermatological Disorders: Deflazacort can be beneficial in managing skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema, where inflammation plays a central role in symptom development.
