Abstract

The use of corticosteroids is becoming more and more widespread in clinical practice. They are synthetic analogs of steroid hormones and show a mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid effect varying in duration and intensity. Its side effects are frequent and of clinical relevance and depend on the dose and cumulative duration of the corticosteroid administered. In patients treated with corticosteroids, two aspects have to be evaluated: side effects of corticosteroids and the state of the adrenal axis. Both procedures require specific study protocols. Being the use of corticosteroids a frequent practice in clinical activity, close monitoring of the patients by expert professionals to identify both the activity of the adrenal axis and the presence of side effects is required.
