Defcort 18mg Tablet – Deflazacort 18 mg
Defcort 18mg Tablet from Macleods Pharmaceuticals contains Deflazacort 18 mg, a synthetic corticosteroid that is converted in the body to its active form. It reduces inflammation and calms an overactive immune system, which helps relieve swelling, pain and stiffness. Doctors prescribe it for rheumatic and autoimmune conditions, certain kidney and skin disorders, and as part of treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Compared with some older steroids it is often chosen for its anti-inflammatory strength at lower doses. The tablet is taken by mouth, and the dose and duration are always decided by the treating doctor. It is a Schedule H prescription medicine, so it must only be used under medical supervision. Do not stop it suddenly after long-term use, as the dose usually needs to be tapered gradually. Store in a cool, dry place away from light and out of reach of children.
