Azcort Oral Suspension is beneficial in inflammatory diseases, including asthma, arthritis, and allergies. It is used in the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). It raises the amount of glucocorticoid in the body. It works by reducing the formation of inflammatory substances and suppressing immunity to prevent self-damage caused by the immune system (auto-immune reactions occurring in organ transplants, autoimmune diseases, or cancer). Azcort Oral Suspension is a steroid that interacts with overactive immune cells, slows their activity, and decreases the damaging effects they cause in the body.
