Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Taking steroid like Wysalone for 15 years would cause bone weakness called 'Osteoporosis'.
To overcome it she can take calcium supplements like Calcimax P syrup which would contain Calcium, Phosphorus, Magnesium and Zinc required for bone strengthening.
For boosting immunity she needs to take multivitamin and mineral capsules regularly.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
I find this answer helpful
