I just got prescribed Cortrosyn 0.25mg Vial For Inj, or Cosyntropin, for some adrenal gland tests. I've never heard of this drug before and the side effects list is a bit scary. Has anyone else gone through this? What was your experience like? I'm particularly nervous about the high blood pressure and allergic reactions, so any advice would be great!
