Xprocort-6-(Tab)
Description_Effects
Xprocort-6 Tablet contains Deflazacort, a corticosteroid used to manage a variety of inflammatory and autoimmune conditions. It works by increasing glucocorticoid levels in the body, which helps reduce the production of substances responsible for inflammation. This anti-inflammatory action makes it effective in treating conditions like asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, inflammatory bowel disease, and various allergic disorders. In addition, Deflazacort suppresses the immune response, which is particularly useful in preventing the body from attacking its own tissues in autoimmune diseases or rejecting transplanted organs. Xprocort-6 is also prescribed for certain cancers, where immune suppression is necessary to prevent tissue damage. Compared to other steroids, Deflazacort is known to cause less weight gain and has a lower risk of bone demineralization, making it a safer long-term option in some cases. Despite its benefits, it should only be used under the supervision of a healthcare provider due to potential side effects such as increased susceptibility to infections, blood sugar imbalance, and hormonal changes. Proper dosing, gradual tapering (when stopping), and regular monitoring are essential to ensure safe and effective treatment.
