Side effects are frequently a result of chronic, subclinical overdosage.
Some dogs may develop polyuria and polydypsia. These dogs in particular may need a re-evaluation of their glucocorticoid status. Contact your veterinarian if your pet experiences increased thirst and urination, fluid accumulation in the limbs, weakness, or weight gain while being treated with fludrocortisone.
