Glucocorticoids mechanism: 2 points
1. interfere with cell cycle of activated lymphoid cells. 2. inhibited production of inflammatory mediators
Glucocorticoids 4 clinical use:
1. first line immunosuppressive therapy. 2. organ rejection or graft v host disease. 3. rhematoid arthritis, 4. inflammatory bowel disease
Glucocorticoids 4 side effects:
1. protein break down. 2. hyperglycemia 3. avascular / aseptic necrosis of bone. 4. iatrogenic Cushing's syndrome
Glucocotricoids precautions and contraindications:
precautions: hyperglycemia and osteoporosis; contraindications: diabetes and osteoporosis

organ transplantation, graft v host disease, autoimmune disorders
