Glucocorticoids are a class of steroid hormones produced by the adrenal glands that help regulate metabolism, immune response, and stress response in the body. They have anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects, making them commonly used as medications to treat conditions like Asthma, Arthritis, and autoimmune diseases. Examples include cortisol and synthetic glucocorticoids like prednisone and dexamethasone.
