Prolonged Steroid use
Hi, I have recently observed this new trend of prescribing Foracort for month like 6 months and more, even for kids. Same with nose puff based stroids. I wanted to know if this is really safe especially when it's prolonged, like for monthd? At the end, these are steroids or steroids based medications. Expert advice would be really helpful as I am getting a bit worried now.
