Not sure why you are considering florinef (or even tried midodinre) IF your BP is normal (even standing). Both of these meds are to increase BP. If you have high HR with your POTS then you need a beta blockers or similar to help control your HR.

Many times your HR increases in compensation for a drop in BP. But you say your BP is fine 'always', so not sure what symptom exactly you are looking to treat. Please advise. POTS/autonomic dysfunction can have various symptoms. It would be more helpful if you told us which symptoms you are having problems with.
