Defcort Oral Suspension is a prescription medicine containing Deflazacort (6mg/5ml).

Take exactly as prescribed. The dose and how long you take it depend on what you are being treated for and how you respond. Do not take more, or for longer, than your doctor has advised.
The side effects seen most often with Defcort Oral Suspension are increased appetite, weight gain, indigestion and nausea. Most are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. Tell your doctor if one persists or worries you.
Before you start, tell your doctor about any liver, kidney or heart problem, whether you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding, and every other medicine you take, including supplements and ayurvedic preparations. Some of them can change how Defcort Oral Suspension works.
Most side effects of Defcort Oral are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:
Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
Take exactly as prescribed. Shake well before use and measure with a dosing syringe/cup. Can be taken with food or milk to reduce stomach upset; do not stop suddenly without medical advice.
Deflazacort is a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation by suppressing the immune response and decreasing release of inflammatory mediators. It helps relieve swelling, redness, pain and allergic symptoms.
Do not stop abruptly (risk of adrenal suppression). Use with caution in diabetes, hypertension, osteoporosis, glaucoma/cataract, peptic ulcer, liver disease and infections. Avoid exposure to chickenpox/measles; steroids can worsen infections. Long-term use may cause growth suppression in children, bone loss and Cushingoid features.
Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.
An overdose of this medicine can cause weight gain, high blood sugar, bone thinning and suppression of the body's own steroid production when it is taken over a prolonged period. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
NSAIDs (GI bleeding risk), anticoagulants (warfarin), antidiabetics (reduced effect), rifampicin/phenytoin/carbamazepine (reduced steroid effect), ketoconazole/ritonavir (increased steroid levels), live vaccines (avoid)
Store below 25°C, protect from light and moisture. Keep bottle tightly closed and out of reach of children.
