How reliable is the ACTH test in diagnosing NC21OHD?

0

Genetic diagnosis is recommended. The ACTH test must be done in the early morning and you must be certain that the subject is not taking over-the-counter steroid medications. Spironolactone must be discontinued for a month prior to the ACTH test. If improperly done, the test may give erroneous results.
