Debono M et al. - Recent research has investigated circadian hydrocortisone therapy imitating the physiological cortisol rhythm.

Now delayed and sustained release oral formulations of hydrocortisone are being developed, and these offer a more practical and effective solution for patients with adrenal insufficiency and congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
