This medication is used to control high blood sugar in people who have a certain condition (Cushing’s syndrome), and who have failed surgery or cannot have surgery to correct the condition. Cushing’s syndrome is caused by the body producing too much of a certain hormone (cortisol) which can cause glucose intolerance or type 2 diabetes. Mifepristone works by blocking the effects of cortisol. Buy korlym mifepristone.

Low levels of potassium or magnesium in the blood may also increase your risk of QT prolongation. This risk may increase if you use certain drugs (such as diuretics/”water pills”) or if you have conditions such as severe sweating, diarrhea, or vomiting. Talk to your doctor about using mifepristone safely.
Older adults may be more sensitive to the side effects of this drug, especially QT prolongation (see above).
