A written informed consent will be taken from the patients or their relatives. The study will involve adults (age 18-no limit years) who will be diagnosed covid-19 with destructive inflammatory immune response needing ICU admission to be run on steroid therapy.~Patients will be assigned randomly to two groups (30 subjects each). The study drug will be delivered in opaque bags labeled study drug and in (Group D) intravenous dexamethasone 8 mg/day given for 7 days, in (Group M) intravenous methylprednisolone 1 mg/kg/day in 2 divided doses per day given for 7 days.
we designed this study to observe the efficacy and safety of dexamethasone versus methylprednisolone in covid-19 diseased patients upon monitoring the inflammatory response and to compare the outcome when these steroids will be given in covid-19 diseased patients in our ICU.
