Unless you have severe, widespread, and scarring acne, The Regimen is normally my suggestion for the most effective acne treatment.

Hey there! Just read your posts. I've been on sprino for 2 months at 100mg. My Derm had me on 50mg the first month which did nothing. From what I've read on sprionolactone , 50mg isn't a high enough dose to see results for acne. You need atleast 100mg.

I still have clogged pores too. In fact, my Derm said at the end of month 3, she might increase me to 150mg. I have slightly elevated testosterone which I why I might need more.

 

On a side note..... I used the kat von d foundation too. And I noticed it was causing a ton of clogged pores! I think it's too thick for people prone to acne. But that stuff covers amazing I will say.

Also, you should check out the user "Green Gables" post/topic about spironolactone and how to take it, what to expect, etc,... It's very informative.

 

I also started reading the book "Its your hormones". Great book that also discusses sprionolactone use.
