Does anyone know the ‘HC’ quantity in adrenal cortex? (More specifically Adrenavive III)

[Beau55]

I’m trying to figure out how much adrenavive is comparable, if at all, to hydrocortisone dosage. I can’t seem to find any information anywhere with any comparisons and wondered if anyone had any more detailed information.

Thanks in advance 😊

Beau55, In the UK at least, hydrocortisone is a prescription only medicine (except the very low dose creams). So, if the manufacturer were to confirm that Adrenavive III contains hydrocortisone, it wouldn't be an OTC product. It would have to be prescribed by someone medically qualified to do so. That may be why you can't find much, if any, information about its hydrocortisone equivalence. Dr Myhill uses adrenal glandulars drmyhill.co.uk/wiki/Adrenal...

thanks red apple, I thought that was the case the same as bovine otc NDT. I just wondered if anyone had stumbled across any dosage comparisons eg 250mcg is similiar to 10mg HC etc. If I contacted adrenavive directly do you think they would say what the dosage is?

I take 600mg and I think I am still experiencing low cortisol symptoms making it hard to raise my NDT and wanted to figure out if I need to top it up further but don’t want to over do it! X

You could try, but I think you may only get useful information if you are consulting a nutritional practitioner. practitioner-search.bant.or...
