Tetracosactide is a synthetic steroid hormone used to treat adrenocortical insufficiency or to test adrenal gland function. This drug mimics adrenocortical hormones (such as ACTH) and helps stimulate the adrenal glands to produce corticosteroids, which regulate the body's metabolism and immune response. Tetracosactide is usually given as an injection and should be used exactly as directed by your doctor. In Hong Kong, this drug may be used to treat conditions related to adrenal insufficiency, such as Addison's disease. Patients should pay close attention to any adverse reactions, including allergic reactions or other adverse effects, during use. During the use of Tetracosactide, you should follow your doctor's advice and undergo regular examinations to ensure treatment effectiveness and physical condition.
How to use: TETRACOSACTIDE is an injection that should be injected subcutaneously or intramuscularly by a healthcare professional or medical professional. Before use, make sure the injection site is clean and follow your doctor's instructions for injections. It is usually not necessary to take it with food, but strenuous exercise should be avoided immediately after the injection.
Dosage Guidelines: For adults, the starting dose is usually 0.25 mg to 0.75 mg daily, adjusted based on condition and physician recommendations. For children, dosage is based on age and weight and should be used strictly as directed by your doctor. During use, regularly check the patient's response and physical condition, and make dosage adjustments if necessary. Do not adjust your dose or stop using the medication on your own, always follow your doctor's advice.
