The 2019 Coronavirus Infection (COVID-19) is linked to diffuse lung injury. Corticosteroids can help to prevent respiratory damage as well as death by modulating inflammation injury occurs in the lung. The aim of this literature review is to obtain a knowledge of current studies as well as debates related to this specific research subject, as well as the objectives of this research were to look at the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids (particularly dexamethasone) in individuals with COVID-19-induced moderate-to-severe Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). It also described the pathway of glucocorticoid metabolic effects as well as illustrated some adverse effects of dexamethasone on various organs in COVID-19 patients.
