RESUMEN
El uso frecuente de medicamentos esteroideos constituye un riesgo de supresión del eje
hipotálamo-hipófisis-adrenal, en particular si el tratamiento se usa por más de cuatro semanas. El
retiro planeado del medicamento y la evaluación oportuna mediante la prueba corta de estimulación
con hormona adrenocorticotrópica permiten identificar los niños en riesgo de presentar una crisis o
una insuficiencia adrenal, como también establecer la necesidad de suplementar a los pacientes con
esteroides durante situaciones de estrés. En este artículo de revisión se describen los efectos de los
esteroides sobre el eje hipotálamo-hipófisis-adrenal en pacientes pediátricos, los esquemas de retiro
gradual de los esteroides y las pruebas para evaluar la función del eje hipotálamo-hipófisis-adrenal en
dichos pacientes.
