      Threshold adrenocortical responses are obtained in humans with doses of ACTH as low as 30-50 ng whereas maximal responses occur with doses of 250-400 ng. The consequent duration of cortisol response is dependent on the concentration of released ACTH.

      Morning serum cortisol below 3 microg/dl are virtually diagnostic for adrenal insufficiency. whereas cortisol values comprised between 5-18 microg/dl require additional investigations: insulin tolerance test (ITT) is considered the gold standard but-when contraindicated-high or low dose-ACTH stimulation test with serum cortisol determination provides a viable alternative.

      Low cortisol levels are found in primary adrenal insufficiency (e.g. adrenal hypoplasia, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, Addison's disease) and in ACTH deficiency [1,2,8,9]. Due to the normal circadian variation of cortisol levels, distinguishing normal and abnormally low cortisol levels can be difficult.

      Dx - assess cortisol excess, determine if pathologic, and ACTH-dependence: Cortisol excess - see if 24 hr urine cortisol > 100. Pathologic excess - low-dose dexamethasone should suppress cortisol… won’t if diseased. ACTH dependence - is ACTH normal/high (ACTH-dependent), or low (ACTH-independent)

      As mentioned above, in primary adrenal insufficiency, blood cortisol is low so this triggers the hypothalamus and pituitary gland to ultimately increase ACTH secretion (to attempt to “whip” the adrenal to put out more cortisol to raise the blood level to normal); thus, in primary adrenal insufficiency, blood cortisol is low and ACTH is high;
