ALT Graphic from the Addison’s Disease Self-Help Group (ADSHG) with the headline “Campaigning for Safer Adrenal Crisis Care” in bold red text. Above this is a red button labelled “Patient Safety Risk.” Supporting text explains that an adrenal crisis is a life-threatening medical emergency requiring a time-critical injection of hydrocortisone. A large grey panel contains a red warning heading: “Other life-threatening conditions have auto-injectors or pre-filled syringes. Adrenal crisis doesn’t.” Additional text explains that the hydrocortisone injection process is complex and involves multiple steps, leaving patients struggling to self-inject life-saving treatment. It also states that patients’ lives are at risk and hospital admissions are increased because of delayed treatment. Below the text is a red circular illustration showing a syringe, vial and ampoule, with warning symbols. The purple footer contains the call to action “Help us campaign for change” followed by a white arrow.
