"Today, I had to refer my aged mother, 85, for her inflammation on the bruise site on the forehead due to a fall a couple of days ago. I referred her to my family doctor, who administered Dexamethasone Injection IP 2 ml. Within 5 minutes, she developed breathing heaviness, gasped for breath, and was about to swoon. Fortunately, as the doctor swung into action and administered her Deriflin injection, after four hours, she returned to normal. This is the worst and riskiest medicine, if I have to say something on this. 24.Nov.2016"

"Taking wean down dosage over six days after being treated for Quincy abscess of a tonsil. The drug relieved the pain so that I was able to talk and swallow again within 8 hours of injection IV. Out of the hospital by a day on the wean down pills, I notice former inflammation of bursitis of hip, knee, and golfer's elbow are being relieved also. The only adverse side effect I now notice is near insomnia, but I feel so well again and energetic. 3 days on the drug now and will end by taper down in 4 more days. 1.5 mg pills at first, two at a time, twice per day."
