I am suffering from asthma from last 3 months. Had defcort 30 once a day. Situation improved. Dr. reduce the defcort 30 to 1/2, daily for 5 days and stop for two days. When stopped, the breathing problem start. Then Dr. advised to take defcort 12 daily for 7 days and the stooped for 1 day. My question is it safe to take defcort 12 twice a day and for how long period? Second can it be repeated on the day when experiencing breathing?
