Diprospan is a drug with which you can quickly remove inflammation or prevent the proliferation of connective tissue. It effectively suppresses immunological and allergic reactions. It works even when other drugs are powerless, but being a glucocorticosteroid agent, Diprospan has serious side effects.
Side effects of diprospan from the central nervous system
Most often after the appointment of injections, diprospan side effects are manifested from the central nervous system of man and the senses. With prolonged use, this medicine may cause:
- dizziness;
- headache;
- convulsions;
- insomnia;
- increase in intragroup pressure.
If you do not stop treatment with Diprospan, some patients suffer damage to the optic nerve. Very often when it is used, sudden jumps of mood are possible. For example, it can vary from joyously-raised to oppressed, while being combined with increased irritability or anxiety. In rare cases, even acute psychoses develop, which are accompanied by a violation of the orientation of the patient and the appearance of hallucinations.

- cardiovascular failure;
- thrombosis of blood vessels;

Protein metabolism changes, as protein breakdown increases, and carbohydrate metabolism is due to the fact that the amount of glucose in the blood increases significantly and the process of its deposition accelerates. All this leads to the fact that fat accumulates and is deposited, mainly in the upper part of the body.
