Hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal axis suppression and intranasal corticosteroid use: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Abstract: Background Intranasal corticosteroids (INCS) are used in the management of sinonasal conditions. Use of exogenous steroids can be associated with hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal axis dysfunction and adrenal insufficiency (AI). We aimed to estimate the rate of AI after INCS use in a meta‐analysis, stratified by steroid type and treatment duration. Methods Ovid Medline, Embase Classic, PubMed, Web of Science, and CINAHL databases were searched following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐An… Show more

“…Oral mucosal diseases such as lichen planus, pemphigus, and pemphigoid are chronic diseases requiring long-term corticosteroid treatment [51]. Long-term use of high doses of topical corticosteroids can lead to adrenal and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis suppression [52,53].…”

“…Studies have suggested that INCs do not significantly affect the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis in children (i.e. aged 3 or older) or adults 31–34 . However, several RCTs have studied the effects of INCs on the growth of children (i.e.…”

“…The relationship between upper and lower airway disease has long been debated, but there is compelling evidence that treatment of severe rhinosinusitis can improve asthma control, and treating the upper airway with nasal steroids and anti-histamines may be helpful before escalating asthma therapy ( 43 ). It should be noted that nasal steroids may, however, significantly contribute to adrenal suppression ( 44 ).…”
