Accurate hydrocortisone dosing can provide safe and effective treatment in children with adrenal insufficiency
Dosing accuracy in children with adrenal insufficiency is essential. If a child gets too much (overdosing) or too little (underdosing) hydrocortisone, they may experience poor health outcomes that can last for a long time, even into their adult years.2-5
Overdosing can lead to long-term health problems
If your child gets more hydrocortisone than prescribed, they are at risk for long-term health problems that could last into adulthood.6
Underdosing can lead to short-term health problems
If your child gets less hydrocortisone than prescribed, they could be in immediate danger.6
