6. Uses of Hydrocortisone
Hydrocortisone (CAS NO.50-23-7) is used to treat a variety of different illnesses. Its synthetic counterpart is used, either as an injection or topically, in the treatment of inflammation, allergy, collagen diseases, asthma, adrenocortical deficiency, shock, and some neoplastic conditions.
7. Production of Hydrocortisone
Hydrocortisone can be got from the adrenal gland. Or it can be got from 17α- hydroxyprogesterone.
