hi, i'm 23 with late-onset cah. nizoral was the first med my doctor prescribed to me when i was diagnosed about three years ago. obviously i don't know anything about the height issue, but i can tell you that (as my doctor explained it to me), the nizoral helps the adrenals to "do their thing" rather than other meds (dexamethazone, cortef, etc.) which override the adrenals. ~ heather
