No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone2

In this study, Cosyntropin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Cosyntropin.

    Summary · context
    The response has been studied in nine dogs with hyperadrenocorticism due to adrenocortical tumours to the administration of dexamethasone, insulin, lysine-vasopressin and tetracosactide by measuring the changes in plasma cortisol concentration.
