🧬 What is Hisone 5mg Used For?
Hisone 5mg is a glucocorticoid medication containing hydrocortisone, used primarily in treating adrenal insufficiency such as Addison’s disease, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and other disorders requiring cortisol replacement. Hydrocortisone is the pharmaceutical equivalent of the body’s naturally occurring cortisol, essential in regulating inflammation, metabolism, blood pressure, and immune function.
This low-dose tablet is ideal for maintenance therapy, dosage tapering, or pediatric patients. Manufactured by Samarth Pharma, Hisone 5mg is widely accessible and trusted in both domestic and international medical markets.
