Dosage:

Mechanism of Action:

Deflazacort, the active ingredient in BERICORT, works by suppressing the immune response and reducing inflammation through its action on glucocorticoid receptors, thereby providing relief from symptoms.

Deflazacort is a glucocorticoid that works by:

• Suppressing the immune system
• Reducing inflammation by inhibiting the release of inflammatory substances
• Preventing tissue damage from overactive immune responses

It gets converted into an active metabolite in the liver, which has similar effects to prednisone but with potentially fewer side effects on bone health and glucose metabolism.

Side Effects:

Common side effects may include:

• Weight gain
• Mood changes
• Increased appetite
• Insomnia
• Gastrointestinal disturbances

Consult a healthcare professional if side effects persist or worsen.

Contraindications:

• Not recommended for patients with known allergies to Deflazacort or any of its components.
• Caution is advised in patients with infections, diabetes, or gastrointestinal disorders.

Drug Interactions:

• Inform your healthcare provider about any other medications you are taking to avoid potential interactions.
