  • Title: [Corticosteroid therapy of various systemic diseases (non-neoplastic, noninfectious)].
    Author: Sternon J, Decaux G, Nève P.
    Journal: Rev Med Brux; 1991 May; 12(5):179-85. PubMed ID: 2057665.
    Abstract:
    The authors evoke how the corticosteroids work (as antiinflammatory and immunosuppressive agents) and how to prescribe them, orally, intravenously, in association with an antimitotic drug. They insist on the suspended and non curative effects of corticotherapy, its side effects and the additive effect of the antimitotic drugs. They suggest different therapeutic programs against rheumatoid arthritis, Still's disease, lupus, dermatomyositis, Behçet's disease, Horton's disease and polymyalgia rheumatica.
