General description

Fludrocortisone acetate is secreted by adrenal cortex. It increases the reabsorption of sodium and secretion of potassium and hydrogen.[1] Fludrocortisone is used to treat cerebral salt wasting syndrome[2] and adrenal insufficiency.[3] Fludrocortisone improves the sensitivity of blood vessels to catecholamines and increases the blood volume.[4]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Fludrocortisone acetate is a synthetic corticosteroid with more mineralocorticoid than glucocorticoid activity.
