Similar plant to the Coral plant

Is this in the same family? And sometimes the leaves get blotchy with white on leaves, it’s smooth in to touch but leaves fall off I live in New Port Richey Florida on gulf side

I would certainly agree that this is very similar to a Coral Plant or Jatropha.
I have not been able to identify this plant.
I would suggest you take this image or a leaf and flower sample to your County Extension Office.
They should be able to id this plant from your region.
