Abstract

A study was conducted to evaluate the benefits and risks associated with the use of corticosteroids as a form of treatment for severe and septic shock among adults. Results indicated that there is no clear indication of benefit in reduction of mortality after use of such medicines, however, of late, low-dosage has been recommended for more beneficial results.
