Can i take deflazacort
I had elevated eye pressure during eye check up. But after thorough check up, doctors ruled out any glaucomatous changes. And told me that no intervention is required. I need to take deflazacort for orthopaedic indication for 20 days. 12 mg for first 10 days and 6 mg for next 10 days. I want to know if it is safe to take it or not?
