氢化可的松片价格贵吗

(hydrocortisone) is currently on the market in China. One box of it in Hong Kong is priced at about $1,000. Based on the recommended daily dose of 20-30 mg, patients can purchase 1 to 2 boxes of the drug a month. In other words, when patients treat adrenal insufficiency or congenital adrenal hyperplasia, they need to spend about $1,000 to $2,000 a month. This price is relatively cheap and suitable for the purchasing needs of most domestic patients.

Because exchange rate fluctuations will cause price changes, you need to consult some domestic professional overseas medical service organizations (such as Medical Companion Travel) for specific prices. At the same time, patients can also contact Medical Companion Travel to obtain their drug purchase channels.

High-dose and long-term use of hydrocortisone tablets in patients can cause moon face, central obesity, purple striae, thinning of the skin, and acne; common symptoms include increased blood sugar, diabetes tendencies, decreased blood calcium and potassium, increased blood sodium, water and sodium retention, increased blood cholesterol, increased blood fatty acids, osteoporosis, pathological fractures (vertebral compression fractures, long bone fractures), femoral head necrosis, myalgia, muscle weakness, and muscle atrophy. Glucocorticoids can also induce or aggravate iatrogenic Cushing's syndrome such as peptic tract ulcers, ulcer perforation, fungal and viral infections, tuberculosis exacerbation, wounds or poor wound healing.

When a patient experiences the above or other adverse reactions during treatment, there is generally no need to adjust the dosage of hydrocortisone tablets when the symptoms are mild. However, when the symptoms are severe, it is necessary for the patient to take effective measures to deal with them. During the medication period, if the patient is under stress, the dosage should be increased appropriately. Specifically, the dose can be increased to 80 mg per day and taken in divided doses. For children, the dosage of the drug is 20-25/m² based on body surface area per day, divided into 3 times, once every hour.
