Delirium after cessation of glucocorticoid therapy.

K M Campbell1, D S Schubert.   

Abstract

We report here a case of delirium that occurred after discontinuation of glucocorticoid therapy. Administration of hydrocortisone reversed the mental status changes seen in this patient. We review similar reported cases and discuss the direct actions of glucocorticoids on the brain.
