Hypoadrenocorticism can be challenging to recognize, and the disease is often misdiagnosed early in the course. Furthermore, treatment can be frustrating for clients due to drug costs and the need for frequent monitoring. The primary objectives of this lecture are to:
- Recognize the clinical and laboratory features of Addison’s disease, including the “non-classic” signs of glucocorticoid deficiency.
- Learn strategies to mitigate treatments costs and the need for frequent monitoring
