An overview of the effects of long-term steroid use is given in this review. Birth control tablets are a type of natural material called steroids, which have a variety of impacts on the human body over a few days. One can utilize natural steroids to enhance specific enzymes that their body may not be able to produce naturally, such testosterone, which is essential in the expansion and improvement. The benefits of steroids for medicinal purposes have not always been easily separated from their unfavourable side effects, particularly after prolonged usage. Doctors could think that using steroids temporarily is safe. lack the well-known long-term adverse effects of steroids; yet, even brief doses of systemic corticosteroids might result in and Increased blood pressure, depression, insomnia, fracture, sepsis, and venous thromboembolism. Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are the most effective treatment for children with persistent asthma. Nonetheless, there is cause for concern due to ICS’s detrimental effects on growth, bone metabolism, and the adrenal (HPA) axis. Therefore, this study’s primary objective was to Compare how long-term inhaled corticosteroid medication (ICS) affects a child’s growth, bone health, and adrenal function. Asthma to a group of kids who had the condition but weren’t using ICS. The fundamental pharmacology of steroids is outlined in this review.
