Fludrocortisone is a synthetic mineralocorticoid used in conjunction with [hydrocortisone] to replace missing endogenous corticosteroids in patients with adrenal insufficiency.[A187169,A187187] It is functionally similar to [aldosterone], the body's primary endogenous mineralocorticoid, and is structurally analogous to [cortisol], differing only by a fluorine atom at the 9-position of the steroid structure - this fluorination is thought to be crucial to fludrocortisone's significant mineralocorticoid potency.
Diazoxide is a non-diuretic benzothiadiazine derivative that activates ATP-sensitive potassium channels.[A255647,L44612] It is chemically related to thiazide diuretics but does not inhibit carbonic anhydrase and does not have chloriuretic or natriuretic activity. Diazoxide is commonly used in the treatment of hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycemia due to its ability to inhibit insulin release. Diazoxide also exhibits hypotensive activity and reduces arteriolar smooth muscle and vascular resistance. When administered intravenously, diazoxide can be used to treat hypertensive emergencies; however, this specific form of diazoxide is no longer available in the US. Diazoxide is usually well tolerated, and some of its more common side effects include fluid retention and electrolyte disturbances. In September 2015, the FDA issued a safety alert regarding post-marketing reports of pulmonary hypertension occurring in infants and neonates.[A255647,L44612]
