Steroids are widely used in treating the relapse of multiple sclerosis. There is no place for long term steroid therapy of this disease. Current practice is a short course of high dose methylprednisolone which can be repeated after an interval, has proven safety and objectively accelerates recovery.
类固醇广泛用于治疗多发性硬化症的复发。对于这种疾病,长期使用类固醇治疗并无必要。目前的做法是短期使用高剂量甲基强的松龙,可在间隔一段时间后重复使用,已证实其安全性且能客观地加速恢复。
