Yes I have tracked. I am low in the morning and higher in the evening. I am not at the point where i am getting dizzy or anything. I was just wondering if it would help to even things out. Wondered if that would help stabilize my blood pressure and help with headache.
Ask the pharmacist about the half life and if splitting will help even things out. If you are low in the morning, actually, that calls more for an evening dosage, really, if you think about it?

Reason: forgot to add word
per my med book the half life is 18-36 hours. They want me to try a 0.1 in the morning and 0.5 in evening. Key will be if my head tolerates it. If I have headaches with it then they will try splitting 0.1 into two. We'll see what happens i guess.
Logically speaking, seems like the opposite would work better - the full pill at night and the half in the morning?
Then you could sleep though the headache and wake up with a BP and the half pill would get you through the day...
I hope you get it figured out so it feels right for you!
Hey rumpled, I just wanted to give you an update. I had a horrible reaction to florinef. According to my cardiologist only 5 in 100,000 get it. Too much fluid accumulated in my brain causing bleeds in my eyes even. I had horrible headaches. I had to undergo several spinal taps to relieve pressure to save my eyesight. Of course off the florinef. We switched to midodrine. Was pretty scary. Life changing experience that is for sure as I sit here trying to type barely able to see the screen. Just wanted to let you know what happened. No more florinef for me!!!
