Details
Cosyntropin (0.25 mg/mL) Injectable Solution – 1 mL Vial (10 vials) is a prescription synthetic hormone (ACTH) used in healthcare and veterinary settings to assess adrenal gland function through stimulation testing. By administering the vial intravenously, providers can measure the cortisol response and evaluate pituitary and adrenal axis health. This test plays a key role in diagnosis of conditions like hypoadrenocorticism or adrenal insufficiency. Administration & Monitoring Dosage is typically 0.25 mg delivered intravenously, followed by timed blood sampling to observe cortisol levels. Proper administration and monitoring by a qualified healthcare provider or veterinarian are essential to interpret results accurately. Though generally safe, clinicians must be alert for side effects and possible allergic reaction during or after injection. With careful use, Cosyntropin aids in confirming endocrine treatment plans and ensuring optimal adrenal performance.
