The doctor doesn't think a PET scan is necessary (I asked). The last PET scan I had was in May and it had a lot of hot spots on it becasue I was still healing from my colon resection. For some reason, the doctor doesn't think a PET scan is what I need now. Thanks for putting my mind at ease about the spots.
Spironolactone and acne have always been looked upon as a favorable combination. In other words, Spironolactone is often used by dermatologists to treat acne . Spironolactone belongs to the class of drugs known as antiandrogens. Antiandrogens are hormone inhibitors.
The dose of spironolactone is usually slowly increased from 25 to 200 mg daily, taken at night. It is sometimes prescribed cyclically to reduce menstrual irregularities, eg, for 3 weeks out of every 4 weeks or days 5â21 of the menstrual cycle. It may take six or more months to see improvement in the skin condition.
