DERM. PUT ME ON THIS TO TREAT ACNE.. HAS WORKED VERY WELL WITH THE HELP OF SOME CREAM. ALTHOUGH I TAKE THIS AT NIGHT BECAUSE IT MAKES ME VERY SLEEPY. IT DOES REALLY WELL WITH THE LARGE ACNE KNOTS THAT USUALLY COME AROUND THE TIME OF MY MENST.CYCLE

I've been on this medicine for a little over a month. Haven't seen any real negative effects as of yet. Only side effect i've noticed is waking up in the middle of the night pouring with sweat. Has anyone else had this problem?

While prednisone is a miracle drug (acne will go away within the 6-day taper cycle), it has side effects with the spironolactone. I just got a UTI and started to have blood in my urine that I'm having checked out today. Just be careful if your doctor prescribes these two drugs together. I never had problems when I did prednisone but with the spironolactone, it has a strange reaction.

I take this medication for acne. It has reduced the redness and swelling of the large cysts and the redness associated with my topical meds. I also take an antibiotic and use Retin-A.

I don't have a huge problem in this area but it was a nice bonus to taking this ... Show Full Comment
