Precautions and Warnings

Pregnancy

Breast Feeding

Breast Feeding

Deflazacort and its metabolites can enter human milk. Tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding so they can advise you about treatment.

Driving

Driving

Dizziness, vision changes, or mood changes may affect alertness. Do not drive or operate machinery if you feel affected.

Alcohol

Ask your doctor before drinking alcohol, as it may worsen stomach or mood effects.

Directions for Use

Take the tablet whole with sufficient water and with food if advised. Use it only as prescribed and do not stop long-term treatment suddenly without medical advice.

Storage and disposal

Store in the original package at controlled room temperature, away from moisture and out of reach of children. Dispose of unused tablets safely.

Quick Tips

  • Do not stop long-term treatment suddenly unless your doctor tells you to.
  • Report fever or other infection symptoms because corticosteroids can mask infection.
  • Keep appointments for blood pressure, blood sugar, eye, and bone checks when advised.

Dosage

Overdose

An overdose may worsen stomach upset, mood changes, high blood sugar, or high blood pressure. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you miss a dose of this long-term corticosteroid, ask your doctor for advice. If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it is time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

Deflazacort is changed in the body to an active corticosteroid that reduces the release of substances involved in inflammation and lowers excessive immune activity.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can change the way deflazacort works or increase side effects. Tell your doctor about all medicines, supplements, and herbal products you use. In particular, tell them if you are taking clarithromycin, fluconazole, diltiazem, rifampicin, carbamazepine, phenytoin, or medicines for diabetes, blood pressure, or inflammation.

Interactions with food items

Grapefruit or grapefruit juice may affect deflazacort levels. Ask your doctor before using it.
