Overview
The most potent risk factor in the development of secondary adrenal insufficiency is infections, such as Tuberculosis. Other risk factors include genetic defects of adrenal gland, diabetes, and Vitiligo.
Risk Factors
The following conditions increase the risk of adrenal insufficiency:
- Drugs
- Chronic steroid therapy
- Opiates
- Antifungals- ketoconazole[1]
- Genetic defects of adrenal gland
- Other genetic defects
- Combined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD)
- Diabetes
- Vitiligo
- Tuberculosis
- Amyloidosis
- AIDS-associated infections
- Cancer
