Dear lybrate-user, corticosteroids, often called just steroids, are anti-inflammatory drugs. Most are synthetic forms of cortisone, a hormone naturally made in your adrenal glands. The best way to avoid overdose is to only take the medication according to your physician’s guidelines and report any alarming side effects or concerns that you have. Don't stop taking corticosteroid all of once, we have to tapper the dose. If you are experiencing only weakness and dizziness after taking overdose of corticosteroids, then boost your energy levels - start exercising, drink plenty of water and change to healthy diet and life style. As steroids are known to produce affects of many possible systems of body, based on the corticosteroid you are using, I suggest you to take an appointment for consultation, so that I can get the details of the case in depth and can rule out the exact changes or side affects and can guide you accordingly. With constitutional homeopathic treatment, we can treat not only affects of corticosteroids, but can address permanent cure to eczema as well.

The steroids will not cure eczema. And it has some very bad effects on health which normal people do not know. Better avoid it. Take homoeopathic treatment..

Apple cider vinegar helps kill the fungus causing the infection. Plus, its mild acidic nature helps prevent the infection from spreading and promotes a speedy recovery. Mix two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in one cup of warm water and drink it twice daily.
