Dexamethasone Suppression Panel

Utah rates for HCPCS 80420

A set of measurements made before and after doses of dexamethasone, a steroid that in most people switches off the body's own production of the stress hormone cortisol. It takes in both blood samples and urine collected over set timed periods, so the tablets and the collections have to be done exactly to schedule. If cortisol does not fall the way it should, that points to the body making too much of it.
