Neonatal acute adrenal insufficiency (AAI) is a rare but severe condition. We report a case of AAI following maternal exposure to moderate doses of corticosteroids during pregnancy. The neonate, born at term, presented with hypoglycaemia complicated by seizures. The AAI was confirmed by endocrine tests and after exclusion of differential diagnoses. Early diagnosis and treatment led to full recovery.
