Deflazacort can be used to treat a wide range of allergic and inflammatory conditions, including severe asthma and rheumatoid arthritis. It belongs to a group of medicines known as corticosteroids. These are also sometimes referred to as steroids. Certain cells in the body release chemicals which cause inflammation. Deflazacort works by stopping the release of these chemicals, therefore reducing inflammation.

Before taking deflazacort make sure your doctor or pharmacist knows:

- If you are pregnant, trying for a baby or breast-feeding.

- If you have ever had tuberculosis.

- If you have high blood pressure.

- If you have recently had a heart attack.

- If you have liver, kidney or heart problems.

- If you have or anyone in your family has diabetes mellitus or glaucoma.

- If you have any problems with your eyes.

- If you have thyroid problems.

Deflazacort also decreases the numbers of white blood cells circulating in the blood. This, along with the decrease in inflammatory chemicals, can prevent the rejection of organ transplants as it prevents the body from attacking foreign tissue. It is useful for the treatment of certain types of leukemia, where there is an abnormally large production of certain white blood cells, and for treating certain diseases that are caused by the immune system attacking tissues in the body.
