Hi,

I'm a male of Age 35 years, I'm suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis since last 4+ years, mainly my left knee joint has the swelling all the time, so it is becoming difficult to walk even a short distance. Couple of years back i used to take Defcort 1mg for about 2-3 months then i stopped it as the swelling was reduced to maximum extent. Later I used homeopathy for about 1year and the situation was under control. But recently from last 1 month the knee pain increased drastically so kindly suggest if i need to reconsider taking of Defcort (ofcourse after having a discussion with the doctor), my only concern is defcort has many side effect so is it advised to take it even then.

Thanks
Anil.
