This medication has helped me live my life again. Recently I started back into my dizzy spells; but this medication helps so that I can be upright. Published: October 03, 2007 ::

I was walking around like a drunk person. I could not walk a straight line. Now, I can walk without feeling like I am going to fall over.Before this drug, I was always told that I had anxiety attacks. Published: February 08, 2008 ::

I have been taking Florinef for over 5 years for low BP. It has been wonderful! I used to feel extremely tired all the time and would faint on a frequent basis. Since I have started this med I feel great and haven't had a single faining spell! Published: September 15, 2008 ::

I was bedfast before using. It took 13 years before I was able to stand w/o BP dropping. The long term side effects for me are horrendous, but the many years of being mostly functional I suppose were worth it. There was nothing else available but a pressure suit in 1962 and I don't believe there is anything else yet available. So yes I am very grateful for it. I still take a small maintence dose daily. I can't use any salt. Published: January 31, 2008 ::

I am taking this medication for POTS. I use to get bad chest pain and this eliminates it. I still get dizzy but I am able to stand longer when using this drug. I am afraid to see what happens when I get off of it. Published: January 29, 2009 ::

hello to all, I am 25y old and I am using this medication because of neuro-cardiogenic syncope. I was just wondering if anyone has any swelling in the feet or hands, and i still feel little dizzy. Have not fainted in 6 weeks for the first time in 1 year. Published: June 30, 2008 ::

This review is for my daughter who went through many doctors and test since she was a year old and she was in third grade before we found a doctor that diagnosed her with a severe form of neuro cardiogenic syncope. After getting the proper medication mix and dosage (including this one) she has been able to go to school fairly regularly and gain a more normal childhood. This drug doesn't cure her condition, but has made a tremendous difference. Published: April 29, 2008 ::

I have been taking this drug for a month, I have neurocardiogenic syncope, and the cardiologist that treats me since I was a teen said that it would help the lightheaded feeling....I also take 2 other drugs to treat symptoms related to this diagnosis and I have felt more dizzy on this drug than I did before I started it. It has not helped, and I intend to talk to my doctor about stopping it really soon. This drug may be effective for some people, but not for me. Published: July 18, 2009 ::

Father has Parkinsons and bp drops when standing. This seemed to even out his pressure, but did not do much for the fainting feeling. Serious side effect was severe loss of potassium. Beware- we have had to stop this drug. Published: October 27, 2008 ::

I have a congenital disease and I have been taking this drug for 23 yrs. and it seems to do its job. Published: January 28, 2008 ::

I have felt extreme fatigue, lethargy and fuzzy thinking. They said it would take 2 weeks for my system to adjust, so hopefully another week will clear that up...? Published: June 25, 2009 ::
