Deflazacort 6mg Tablet

Indication

Defclaz 6 tablet (Deflazacot 6mg ) is a corticosteroid (a synthetic glucocorticoid) used primarily for its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. The 6 mg dosage is a standard therapeutic strength often used for chronic conditions.

Mechanism of Action

Defcloz 6 works by mimicking the effects of hormones naturally produced by your adrenal glands. Its action can be broken down into two main processes:

• Anti-Inflammatory Action: It inhibits the synthesis of prostaglandins and leukotrienes—chemicals in the body that cause swelling, redness, and pain. It also stabilizes lysosomal membranes, preventing the release of enzymes that damage tissues.

• Immunosuppression: It reduces the activity of the immune system by interfering with the function of white blood cells (lymphocytes and macrophages). This prevents the body from attacking its own tissues in autoimmune conditions.

Common Uses

Because of this mechanism, it is frequently prescribed for:

• Autoimmune disorders (like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus).

• Severe allergic reactions and asthma.

• Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), where it helps maintain muscle strength
