I started taking Florinef a few weeks ago for my adrenal insufficiency. Before that, I felt dizzy all the time and had very low energy. Since starting this medication, I feel much more balanced and I don’t get that faint feeling when I stand up anymore. It’s made a big difference in my daily life.
Will I have side effects like swelling or weight gain?
Will I have side effects like swelling or weight gain?
Some patients may notice mild swelling or slight weight gain due to water retention. This is a known effect of Florinef, but it's usually manageable. We recommend monitoring your blood pressure and sodium levels regularly. If side effects become uncomfortable, we recommend adjust the dose or make dietary suggestions to help balance it.
