○ Treat the brain
○ Remove the pathology of the pit
• Cushing syndrome
○ Treat the cause
§ Too much steroids - stop the medication, carefully!
□ If giving patient prednisone for a few weeks > the patients adrenals will shut down entirely > body senses steroids in the system and systemically, the adrenals shut down, when taken off > take them off ____ > need adrenals to readapt decreased steroids in the circulation
® These patients still retain FFF response - and in a stressful situation in a dental office > if taking prednisone and you stop it > may experience an adrenal crisis > body is trying to respond to FFF, but it can’t do it > body crashes
® Pills from 40, 20, 10, 5mg > tapers you down to make sure you don’t experience an adrenal crisis
○ Reduce steroid production from adrenals, or reduce effect of steroids on the downstream tissues > ____ > prevents cortisol (steroid) synthesis from the adrenal gland
§ Used for ____ infections
□ Including patients w ____ disease
® High risk of developing adrenal insufficiency bc of the drugs they’re taking (in addition to protease inhibitors)
