Your blood is drawn. You then receive a shot (injection) of ACTH, usually into the muscle in your shoulder. The ACTH may be a man-made (synthetic) form. After either 30 minutes or 60 minutes, or both, depending on how much ACTH you receive, your blood is drawn again.

General Discussion. ACTH deficiency arises as a result of decreased or absent production of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) by the pituitary gland. A decline in the concentration of ACTH in the blood leads to a reduction in the secretion of adrenal hormones, resulting in adrenal insufficiency (hypoadrenalism).
Although it may make more physiologic sense to perform the test during the nadir of endogenous ACTH production (around midnight) it is usually performed at 8:00-9:00 AM for ease of collection and comparison to normative data that was collected during that time-frame.
Prior administration of estrogens, spironolactone, cortisone, and hydrocortisone (cortisol) can all interfere with the ACTH stimulation test by causing abnormally high baseline cortisol levels.
Atrophy of the adrenal cortex due to ACTH deficiency may result in the lack of a significant cortisol response to single-pulse ACTH administration; the aldosterone response usually remains normal due to its synthesis in the zona glomerulosa, which is orchestrated by the renin-angiotensin system, not ACTH.
