Waycart-6 is a branded generic formulation of deflazacort, a synthetic glucocorticoid corticosteroid. Developed and marketed by SBM Enterprises (also known as SBM Pharmaceuticals) in India, it contains 6 mg of deflazacort as the active ingredient. Deflazacort is a prodrug that is metabolized to its active form, 21-desacetyl-deflazacort, which binds to glucocorticoid receptors to exert potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. It is primarily indicated for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), where it helps to maintain muscle strength and slow disease progression by reducing muscle inflammation. Additionally, Waycart-6 is used to manage a wide range of inflammatory and autoimmune conditions, including asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, severe allergic reactions, and various skin diseases.
