What are the indications for the Hong Kong version?

Hydrocortisone tablets are glucocorticoid drugs. Hydrocortisone tablets are mainly used for replacement therapy in the treatment of adrenal insufficiency and congenital adrenal hyperplasia. At the same time, the drug can also be used for rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatic fever, gout, bronchial asthma, allergic diseases, and can also be used for severe infections and anti-shock treatment.

For adult patients, the recommended daily dose of hydrocortisone tablets is 20-30 mg. Take 2/3 of the required amount in the morning and the remaining 1/3 after lunch. During the medication period, if the patient experiences stress, the dosage of hydrocortisone tablets should be increased appropriately. Specifically, it can be increased to 80 mg per day and taken in divided doses.

For children, the dosage of hydrocortisone treatment is 20-25/m² based on body surface area per day, taken in 3 divided doses, once every hour.

Some patients with adrenal insufficiency often have very low cortisol. If oral hormone supplementation with hydrocortisone tablets is not given in time, the patient may suffer from general fatigue and aches and pains. Some patients may also experience a drop in blood pressure and an increase in heart rate under stress. In severe cases, symptoms of shock may occur.

Hydrocortisone tablets are a hormonal drug. During oral drug treatment, care must be taken not to stop the drug at will. The dose needs to be gradually reduced to the physiological requirement and taken orally for a long time. It is also recommended that patients must monitor their bone density during oral hydrocortisone treatment.

The above is an introduction to hydrocortisone. If patients have other questions about hydrocortisone (such as drug price, purchasing channels, etc.), they can consult the medical companion travel service.
