Dear lybrate-user
the vaccine and the drug interaction is probably not what is causing you to feel unwell. Deflaz itself can cause some side effects, which can be managed with other mediicnes.
Do not stop deflaz suddenly it as it should be tapered gradually before stopping. Please share what you are feeling and why you have been prescribed deflaz, so someone can. Take care.

Deflazacort is a steroid...
It suppress the symptoms for time being..
But as soon as it's action goes it come back..

But major concern is bad effects of steroids...
Better take Homoeopathic treatment for permanent solution...
You can consult me through lybrate..
