Later it was noticed that Prednisolone (detla cortril) weakened his moving capacity of his body,hands and feet.A Neuralogist in Islamabad told that it was due to long use of detacortrill. Please guide me how to subside/neutralise its side effects to end this type of his weakness. Moreover, please keep me inform of regularly about updated treatment of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy known so far.
