About Decmax 4 mg Injection 1 ml
Decmax 4 mg Injection 1 ml is used to replace Dexamethasone deficiency. It treats various medical conditions, including severe allergic conditions, collagen diseases, pulmonary disorders, blood disorders, rheumatic diseases, skin diseases, gastrointestinal disorders, oedema, eye disorders, neoplastic states and endocrine disorders. It is also used in preoperative and postoperative support. Furthermore, it is approved for the treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in adult and adolescent patients (aged 12 years and older with a body weight of at least 40 kg) who require supplemental oxygen therapy.
Decmax 4 mg Injection 1 ml contains dexamethasone, a steroid with both anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressant activity. Anti-inflammatory activity relieves the symptoms of inflammatory conditions, such as redness, swelling, and tenderness caused by various medical conditions. On the other side, immunosuppressant activity helps to calm your immune system. As a result, it can aid in autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, in which your immune system erroneously destroys your own tissues.
Decmax 4 mg Injection 1 ml will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. Some people may experience mood changes in personality, mental health problems, muscle weakness, increased appetite, irregular or absent menstrual periods, infections and infestations, impaired vision, difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep, heartburn, peptic ulcer, muscle weakness, nausea and injection site pain or redness as side effects of Decmax 4 mg Injection 1 ml. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Consume antioxidant-rich food. Blueberries, tomatoes, cherries, squash, and bell peppers are highly antioxidants.
Consuming probiotic-rich foods aids in the development of the immune system's resistance to allergies.
Consume foods rich in quercetin (a flavonoid), such as apples, cherries, spinach, broccoli, and blueberries.
Include seasonal fruits, vegetables, whole grains, healthy fats, and fish in your daily diet.
Limit your intake of foods that may cause allergies, such as dairy products, soy, eggs, and nuts.
Limit the consumption of foods high in sugar that may aggravate inflammation.
Reducing stress and having a regular sleep schedule might be beneficial.

Consume a well-balanced diet. Consume vitamin and nutrient-rich foods like dark green, yellow, orange, and red vegetables and fruits to enhance your immune system. Choose lean protein and whole carbohydrates over-processed foods.
