Deflazacort

Deflazacort is a corticosteroid medication used to reduce inflammation and suppress the immune system. It is prescribed for various conditions such as allergic reactions, skin disorders, and autoimmune diseases. Deflazacort is also used in the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a genetic disorder that causes progressive muscle weakness and deterioration.
