Acne
"I started out on a 25mg dosage and am now at a 75mg dosage.  At first, spironolactone made the acne on my face, back, and chest much worse; but I stuck with it (because I was ready to do about anything to get rid of my acne), and my skin is almost completely clear now.  Yes, it did take about 4 months to work, but it&#039;s totally worth it.  For the first time in my life, I have no blackheads!  I&#039;ve been dealing with cystic acne since I was 16 and finally, at age 25, I&#039;ve found something that controls it.  The only side effect I noticed was that I got my period the day after starting spironolactone, but it&#039;s been normal since then.  Highly recommended, but you have to stick with it through the tough times at the start."
