Defort 6mg Tablet contains deflazacort, a synthetic steroid that reduces inflammation and suppresses the immune system. It is prescribed to treat various inflammatory and autoimmune conditions, including Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a genetic disorder causing progressive muscle weakness. This medication helps reduce pain, swelling, and stiffness while improving muscle strength and function in affected patients.
Deflazacort works by controlling the body's inflammatory response and immune activity. It is commonly used for conditions such as asthma-related inflammation, arthritis, allergies, and to prevent organ rejection after transplant surgery. Before starting this medication, inform your healthcare provider about any allergies, medical conditions, or other medications you are taking. Do not receive live vaccines during treatment, and seek immediate medical attention if you develop chickenpox or measles.

In Duchenne muscular dystrophy patients, it helps slow disease progression and improves muscle strength. By reducing the inflammatory response, this medication alleviates symptoms in autoimmune and allergic conditions and helps prevent the body from rejecting transplanted organs.
