Floricot Tab — Uses, Dosage & Benefits

Fludrocortisone (100mcg)

Floricot 100 mcg Tablet belongs to a class of drugs called corticosteroids. It replaces the deficient natural hormone and relieves the signs and symptoms of Addison’s disease. It relieves the signs and symptoms of the adrenogenital syndrome by binding to aldosterone receptors in the body. This binding, in turn, causes retention of salt and water in the body, raises blood pressure and lowers potassium levels. Fludrocortisone reduces inflammation by switching off multiple inflammatory genes (encoding cytokines, chemokines, adhesion molecules, inflammatory enzymes, receptors and proteins) that have been activated during the chronic inflammatory process.

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush or break it. Floricot 100 mcg Tablet is to be taken with food.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
