Resumen
ROBLES TORRES, Erick; LEAL CURI, Lisette y DIAZ SOCORRO, Cossette. Drug treatment of Cushing's syndrome. Rev Cubana Endocrinol [online]. 2014, vol.25, n.3, pp. 206-215. ISSN 1561-2953.
Although the drug treatment is not a first line therapy for endogenous hypercortisolism, it plays a key role in certain patients suffering Cushing's syndrome. Several drugs may be used in isolation or in combination. Ketoconazol is a useful, economic, safe and efficacious option at long term. A review was made of drugs with best results, doses, efficacy, adverse effects and perspectives, taking into account clinical assays in which they have been used.
