"After a long chronic stress, my adrenals were in 'burnout.' This medicine, until now, has worked great. The progression has been very slow but with satisfaction. The only side effects were an upset stomach (which have gone) and frequent urination (which has been reduced)."

"Started experiencing fatigue a few years ago and passed out suddenly. Rushed to the hospital with a normal cardiac workup and blood tests. After seeing a long list of doctors, one finally came to the realization I had adrenal insufficiency. Prescribed 10 mg hydrocortisone daily and feel much better."

"Made stomach upset early on, gurgly/hungry feeling. Goes away. Severe prolonged subclinical hypothyroidism resulted in needing this medicine. Makes my Cytomel work. And reduced my anxiety to manageable levels. Even the little painful scab bumps I used to get on my scalp are gone... gone! Those things were as painful as a bee sting the day after."
