DEFLIZA 30

Defliza 30 Tablet contains Deflazacort, a corticosteroid medicine used to manage inflammation, allergies, and autoimmune disorders. It is widely prescribed for conditions like asthma, arthritis, skin allergies, kidney problems, eye inflammation, and certain muscle disorders. By controlling the release of substances that cause inflammation, Defliza helps reduce swelling, pain, redness, and allergic responses effectively. It also works as an immunosuppressant, lowering the body’s overactive immune reactions that may damage healthy tissues. This makes it beneficial in the treatment of autoimmune diseases and chronic inflammatory problems. Defliza is often considered safer for long-term use compared to other steroids, as it may cause fewer complications. However, it should always be used only under medical guidance, since misuse or abrupt withdrawal can lead to serious side effects. It is important for patients to follow their doctor’s instructions closely while on this medication for safe and effective results.
