Glucocorticoids possess potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties,rendering them a common therapeutic option for oral mucosal diseases.The mechanisms of glucocorticoid action are diverse,encompassing both genomic and non-genomic effects.Given the ubiquitous presence of glucocorticoid receptors in nearly all human cells,their impact is widespread.While the effi-cacy of glucocorticoids is evident,prolonged or high-dose administration can lead to various adverse effects.Therefore,it is crucial to understand the mechanism of action and adverse reactions of glucocorticoids,master the indications and dosage of glucocorticoids in the treatment of oral mucosal diseases,and apply glucocorticoids correctly and reasonably in the diagnosis and treatment of oral mucosal diseases.At the same time,it is important to monitor the adverse reactions after medication and deal with them timely to ensure the safety of medication for patients.
