Cortimax-12mg Tablet contains deflazacort (12 mg). Here’s how it works:

• Activation of Intracellular Receptors: Deflazacort binds to certain receptors found inside cells in your body.

• Modification of Cellular Responses: Activated receptors lead to changes in cellular responses that help manage inflammation and immune reactions.

• Immune System Suppression: By modifying these cellular responses, deflazacort effectively suppresses the immune system.

• Inhibition of Inflammatory Substances: Deflazacort inhibits the production of certain substances that cause inflammation, leading to a reduction in inflammation throughout the body.

Keep in mind that while these mechanisms are well-established aspects of how deflazacort works, the exact processes can be complex and vary depending on several factors. Always consult your doctor for more detailed information about how this medication works within your body.
