Calculates the lowest effective glucocorticoid dose (dexamethasone or prednisone) to normalize blood pressure and serum potassium in glucocorticoid-remediable aldosteronism (GRA/FH-I) by titrating to biochemical and clinical targets. Indicated when initiating medical treatment for confirmed GRA, triggered by findings such as early-onset hypertension, family history of stroke before age 40, spontaneous hypokalemia, or suppressed plasma renin activity with elevated aldosterone.

In patients with primary aldosteronism receiving mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist therapy, the guideline recommends titrating the MRA dose upward to raise renin when blood pressure remains uncontrolled and renin is suppressed. Consider this step when hypertension is not at goal despite MRA therapy and plasma renin activity (or direct renin concentration) is low.
