Florinef and gaining weight

[Guest guest]

Hi folks,

how are your experiences concerning taking florinef and gaining weight?

Anne feels that she gains weight by this drug. Are there any substitutes for florinef which keep her thin line? Not on behalve of me, but she wants it herself. :-))

Hugs,

Timo:

Florinef works by helping the body retain fluids which helps keep the

BP up. Tell Anne it is nothing but water weight, and she might accept it. in

ken's case, it all flowed out at night when his BP went high. Judging by the

quantity each night, I would say he lost a couple of pounds each night which

he gained back each day as he drank water and took Florinef and salt tablets.

My Mom has been on Florinef for the past 6 years and hasn't gained

weight. In fact I wish she'd gain a few pounds. )

:

My Mom uses Half-Salt on her dr's recommendation. I believe he told her

not to cut out salt entirely from her diet as it's a valuable source of

potassium.
