Treatment of hypocortisolism typically involves hormone replacement therapy to restore normal cortisol levels. Hydrocortisone or other glucocorticoids are commonly prescribed. In cases where toxic exposure is identified as the cause, removing the source of exposure is essential. Supportive care and monitoring are also important to manage symptoms and prevent complications. In the realm of toxicology, treatment may also involve chelation therapy or other detoxification methods if heavy metals or specific toxins are implicated.
