Florinef:
Florinef Tablets are a prescription corticosteroid medication widely used to treat adrenal insufficiency conditions such as Addison’s disease, congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), and orthostatic hypotension. Each tablet contains 0.1mg of fludrocortisone acetate, a synthetic steroid that mimics natural hormones produced by the adrenal glands. It works by helping your body retain sodium and regulate fluid balance, which in turn helps maintain blood pressure and overall health.
Now conveniently available at Alshifa Pharmacy and Alshifa Medix, Florinef 0.1mg is a trusted solution for managing long-term endocrine disorders.

⚙️ How It Works
Florinef (Fludrocortisone Acetate) mimics the action of aldosterone, a naturally occurring hormone in the adrenal gland. It promotes sodium reabsorption and potassium excretion, helping your body retain fluid and stabilize blood pressure — essential for individuals with adrenal insufficiency or blood pressure disorders.
