Patient information: Cushing's syndrome treatment



Author Lynnette K Nieman, MD	Section Editor Andre Lacroix, MD	Deputy Editors Leah K Moynihan, RNC, MSN Kathryn A Martin, MD

INTRODUCTION — The treatment of Cushing's syndrome depends upon the underlying cause. Treatment can reverse most of the symptoms of Cushing's syndrome, although this must be done carefully to minimize the possibility of permanent hormone deficiency and treatment side effects.

This topic review discusses the treatment of Cushing's syndrome. The causes, signs and symptoms, and diagnosis of Cushing's syndrome are discussed separately. (See "Patient information: Cushing's syndrome").
