"People with arthritis can acheive dramatic relief from pain and tender joints by taking less medication. The new approach, now called Microdose Therapy™, is based on the simple principle that you should take medication when your body needs it most."

Dr. Justus J. Fiechtner
Chief of Rheumatology - Univ. North Dakota
now at Michigan State University

"The key to its (cortisone) use is recognition that all the toxicity is dose related. A low dose, such as 7.5 mg prednisone/day (i.e. the synthetic equivalent of 30 mg cortisone/day) is not cumulative and is thought to be usable indefinitely without producing osteoporosis or other serious adverse effects."

Dr. Louis L. Healey
Clinical Professor of Medicine-University of Washington
Rheumatologist, Virginia Mason Clinic

"That cortisone and hydrocortisone are normal hormones of the adrenal complex implies that in physiologic dosages (the body's average daily cortisone production) they must be safe."

Dr. William Jeffries
Endocrinologist- Cleveland, OH
Author, "Safe Uses of Cortisone," 1983

"On Microdose Therapy™, patients finally have found something that works really well. They are quite graceful. By being able to take the medication when they need it and not taking it at other times, they feel like they are in control. They like the idea of having control. The cortisone holiday that we employ in Microdose Therapy™ is absolutely crucial to its effectiveness. Ninety percent of people who come into my office and start using Microdose Therapy™ feel better that they have for a long time."

Dr. Francis LeBlanc
Family Practice Center
East Grand Forks, MN

"After using Microdose Therapy™ for over two years, 80% of my patients experienced dramatic relief (based on a minimum of symptom reductions of at least 50%)... It is my impression, based on a personal small sample of patients, that by using the Microdose technique, patients seem to have longer and longer periods of being pain-free and seem to have less severe flares over the treatment period.

It is effective, easy to follow, and very economical. It is a good program."

Dr. R. J. Koval
Physician, One Health Place
Dallas, TX

"Microdose Therapy™ is an excellent example of a scientifically evaluated and effective method not only to significantly reduce symptoms but return disease management to the patient. Returning control to our patients not only decreases stress and fear, but actually improves psycho-immunological status. Over the past two years, we have obtained significant and long-lasting decreases in arthritic pain and number of disease flares using Dr. Stenberg's Microdose methods."

Dr. Michael Jon Kell
Medical Director, Private Clinic
Atlanta, GA

"Microdose Therapy™ is a new system for treating arthritis using tiny amounts of hydrocortisone, thus avoiding its side effects. It is built upon the idea that the arthritic's body produces an inadequate amount of hydrocortisone when the body should stop natural inflammation, and hydrocortisone should be given only as needed to terminate inflammation and not at other times."

Dr. John B. Irwin
Medical Director - Inflammation Institute
University of North Dakota

"Cortisone is still the best treatment for inflammatory arthritis. Now, a safe way has finally been found to use it. Cortisone is not a drug. It is a natural hormone of the body. When used in replacement dosages for what the body should be producing, it is perfectly safe."
