Hydrocortisone, the active ingredient in Cortef, is a synthetic corticosteroid that functions similarly to cortisol, one of the body’s most important stress-response hormones. Cortisol plays a vital role in regulating metabolism, reducing inflammation, and assisting the body in stress response. By supplementing the body’s cortisol levels, Cortef aids in maintaining homeostasis when the body does not produce sufficient corticosteroids due to conditions like adrenal insufficiency or during periods of high physical stress.

Description

Cortef, with the generic name hydrocortisone, belongs to a class of medications known as corticosteroids, which mimic the effects of hormones naturally produced by the adrenal glands. Cortef is primarily used to treat a variety of conditions due to its potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. It’s commonly prescribed for conditions such as adrenal insufficiency, inflammatory disorders, allergic reactions, and certain autoimmune conditions. By closely replicating the body’s natural stress response, Cortef helps manage symptoms associated with low corticosteroid levels and mitigates overactive immune system reactions, thus providing relief from inflammation and pain.
