Florinef etc. (fludrocortisone) is a corticosteroid medication that helps to regulate blood pressure by helping the kidneys retain sodium that would otherwise be lost in the urine.
In veterinary medicine, fludrocortisone is prescribed for dogs and cats to treat mineralocorticoid deficiency secondary to Addison's Disease.
