Decmax 4Mg Tablet Health Feed

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.

As regards the infection on the abdomen, please do show it to a skin doctor, it can be cured. For weight increase one needs, proper nutrition and regular structured exercise. Thank...more

Ms. lybrate-user it's unfortunate to hear such issue. All medicines have some or other side effects and your child is suffering from ototoxicity of typhoid medications. Keep in mind to inform any doctor you consult for your baby in future to inform about this event to prevent further damage. Secondly you didn't mention how bad the hearing loss is. Send audiometry and bera reports so that I can advise accordingly. If the damage is permanent then hearing aid will be the only option. There are some...more

Dexamethasone is used to treat conditions such as arthritis, blood/hormone/immune system disorders, allergic reactions, certain skin and eye conditions, breathing problems, certain bowel disorders, and certain cancers. It is also used as a test for an adrenal gland disorder (cushing's syndrome).
The most troublesome side effects:
weight gain. Steroids affect your metabolism and the way your body stores fat. Mood swings. Susceptibility to infection. Thinning skin. Cataracts and glaucoma. ...more

The most common cause is the use of steroid drugs, but it can also occur from overproduction of cortisol by the adrenal glands.
Signs are a fatty hump between the shoulders, a rounded face and pink or purple stretch marks.
Treatment options include reducing steroid use, surgery, radiation and medication. No single lab test is perfect and usually several are needed. The three most common tests used to diagnose Cushing's syndrome are the 24-hour urinary free cortisol test, measurement of m...more

Hi! the majority of symptoms that you have measured overlap between the two. Like obesity itself can result in stretch marks, round face, lethargy, resulting in altered menstrual cycle. Obesity in itself is major cause for pcos.

And in addition get thyroid profile also done.
