Corticorelin ovine is an analogue of the naturally occurring human corticotropin-releasing hormone (hCRH) peptide. Corticorelin ovine is a potent stimulator of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) release from the anterior pituitary. ACTH stimulates cortisol production from the adrenal cortex. Corticorelin ovine was marketed under the brand name ACTHREL for use in differentiating pituitary and ectopic production of ACTH in patients with ACTH-dependent Cushing’s syndrome.

Sample Use Guides
A single intravenous dose of ACTHREL® (corticorelin ovine) at 1 mcg/kg is recommended for the testing of pituitary corticotrophin function. A dose of 1 mcg/kg is the lowest dose that produces maximal cortisol responses and significant (though apparently sub-maximal) ACTH responses. Doses above 1 mcg/kg are not recommended.
