Cortef is available in tablet form and should be taken by mouth with food or milk to prevent stomach upset, as directed by your doctor. The tablet should be taken with a full glass of water (8 ounces/240 milliliters) unless otherwise directed by your doctor.
Follow the dosing schedule carefully, as the dosage and length of treatment depend on your medical condition and response to treatment. Your doctor may direct you to take hydrocortisone 1 to 4 times a day or take a single dose every other day. To help remember when to take your medication, you may find it helpful to mark your calendar with reminders or use a pill box.
The recommended dosage of Cortef (hydrocortisone) varies depending on the specific medical condition being treated. The initial dosage can range from 20mg to 240mg of hydrocortisone. However, the exact dosage should be determined by a healthcare provider based on the patient’s medical history and individual response to treatment.
