GENECORT 6MG TAB
- Name: GENECORT 6MG TAB (Commonly referred to as Gencort 6 Tablet or Geecort 6mg Tablet).
- Composition: Each tablet contains Deflazacort 6mg. Deflazacort is a corticosteroid, a type of steroid medicine that mimics naturally occurring glucocorticoids in the body.

It works by blocking certain chemicals that cause pain and swelling.
- Autoimmune Conditions: It provides relief in autoimmune diseases like psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, eczema, atopic dermatitis, and Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), by lowering the immune system's response.
- Immune Suppression: The medicine also aids transplant patients by suppressing the immune system to prevent organ rejection. It can also be used in the treatment of certain cancers like leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma by suppressing the immune system and reducing inflammation around tumors.
