Is florinef (fludrocortisone) 0.05 mg daily bad to be on longterm for pots syndrome? how long is too long?risk of osteoporosis? is it better than low dose prednisone?

Ask your doctor: Postural Orthostasis maybe helped by florinef (fludrocortisone). As it seems you know it is not without risk. You need and deserve to have a full conversation with the prescribing physician not just a text commentary. That being said, there ARE other choices- usually more costly, but anything beats ffeeling woozy or passing out right? I personally would take it for a time. Hope this helps- stay well
