Yes they are steroids and yes they have harmful effects.. but in this condition to develop the babies fast enough it might have been prescribed....
My advise is to trust your doctor... but if you have doubts then consult another gynecologist with all your case details...

Hi lybrate-user. The injection will be good for your babies lungs, betamethasone is better, but depending on your gynaecologist, even dexamethasone is also effective. I don't know the details of your pregnancy, but with twins, inj will be more likely to be helpful than harmful. Hope you are not diabetic. All the best.

One should not take dexamethasome to treat fever. You should have patience. Keep checking the fever (with a thermometer) and see for other symptoms. CBC and urine routine can also be done. Culture can also be done to ascertain the strain. If it is viral then simple symptomatic treatment is enough and no antibiotics are required.

Hello dear Lybrate user,
Warm welcome to Lybrate.com
I have evaluated your query thoroughly.* Dexamethasone is a steroid which will work as heroin or cocaine in your sex drive, after use of it you will be dependent upon it, so not recommended at all.* Cyproheptidine can be taken but it is not the absolute medication for this issue. Hope this clears your query. Wishing you fine recovery. Welcome for any further assistance. Regards take care.
