Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
EXPERIMENTAL: Quick responders (Group A)
Patients will be divided into two groups based on time to remission with initial standard dose of corticosteroids. Patients who respond within 10 days (Group A) will receive a total of 8 weeks of corticosteroid therapy whereas those who respond between 10 days to 28 days (Group B) will receive ≥12 weeks ((maximum of 16 weeks) of corticosteroid therapy. CORTICOSTEROID THERAPY FOR INITIAL EPISODE Group A (Total duration of therapy 8 weeks)
CORTICOSTEROID THERAPY FOR A RELAPSE
