SallyHi Rebecca,
My daughter is also on a small dose of cortef so she is on liquid hydrocortisone. Our pharmacy makes if for us once a month and it is great. I love it because we can make small changes and it is so easy to double or triple her dose when needed. She has been on this for 2 1/2 years with no problems. I would highly recomened you look into it. Our ped endo said anyone who is taking a dose less than 2.5 mg per dose should be on the liquid because it is too hard to be accurate with a dose smaller than that with the pill. If you have any questions please post here. I hope this helps.
