Ufecort 6mg Tablet

Product Introduction

Ufecort 6mg Tablet is an immunosuppressive corticosteroid used to manage autoimmune and inflammatory conditions, including Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) in adults and children above 2 years. Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system attacks healthy cells, leading to inflammation and tissue damage. Ufecort works by binding to immune cells and inhibiting the production of cytokines, chemicals responsible for inflammation.

By regulating immune activity, Ufecort 6mg Tablet slows muscle degeneration, reduces inflammation, and supports overall organ and joint health.
