CompositionMahacort DZ 6 Tablet is used to manage a wide range of inflammatory and autoimmune conditions. It is a single-ingredient corticosteroid containing deflazacort.
It is used in certain types of arthritis, asthma, severe allergies, inflammatory bowel disease and skin and eye disorders, and to help prevent rejection after an organ transplant. Take it with food or milk in the dose, frequency and duration prescribed by your doctor. Do not stop it suddenly, as the dose usually needs to be reduced gradually.
Eat less salt and sugary food, and include calcium-rich foods such as milk, curd and ragi to protect your bones. Avoid contact with people who have chickenpox or measles.
Before starting, tell your doctor if you have an infection, diabetes, high blood pressure or a stomach ulcer, and about all other medicines, supplements or herbal products you take. Longer use can affect blood sugar, bone strength and blood pressure, so regular check-ups are important. Report signs of infection or mood changes. Follow the prescribed dose, frequency and duration, report persistent or serious side effects, and do not stop the medicine unless your doctor advises you to do so.
