Background: Adrenal insufficiency (AI) is treated with lifelong glucocorticoid replacement historically with Hydrocortisone (2-3 divided doses per day) (1). Prednisolone is an alternative option with longer half-life up to 3.2 hours and requires once daily dosage. Currently there is no clear evidence indicating the superiority of one medication over the other (2).
