Results from this study3

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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone3

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
    Plasma (baseline) cortisol and ACTH concentrations were measured in 13 healthy foals at birth and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 10, 14, 21, 28, 42, 56, and 84 d of age.
