6β-Hydroxycortisol is an endogenous steroid. In humans, it is a metabolite of cortisol produced by cytochrome p450-3A monooxygenases, mainly, 6β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (CYP3A4). 6β-hydroxycortisol is used as a biomarker of 6β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (CYP3A4) activity. Drugs that induce CYP3A4 may accelerate cortisol clearance, by accelerating cortisol conversion to 6β-hydroxycortisol, and vice versa: drugs that inhibit CYP3A4 can slow down cortisol clearance, as they reduce the conver
