Guest guest Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 prescription name is cortef, generic name hydrocortisone You may find it cheaper to order online from myrxforless, no prescription required. I buy 20mg tablets and cut them into quarters, it is much cheaper that way. Lynda (in the UK) adrenals - ? I know, I'm losing it!! I'm picking up on all of the different things to treat the adrenals with. And am gathering, that since I've had thyroid problems for so many years - most of them not treated or undertreated, I will most likely need to have my adrenals treated. What is the natural prescription med to take for this? If my doctor prescribes me something, what is it that I want her to prescribe for me?

But it has to be taken 4 x a day which causes some people problems. The synthetic prednisolone (Deltacortril) is longer lasting (24 hours) so can be taken once a day (or some folks take it twice).

Some folks prefer the natural....but from everything I can fine....the synthetic is okay with the adrenal support. Cindi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 Thanks! : ) so - we're probably ok with the synthetic over the natural in this case? I have a feeling I'll either be ordering it from mexico - or getting something at a drug store - if it's possible to find something locally in a drug store. Cris Re: adrenals - ?
