i am 52 and started taking spironolactone 25mg 2x per day. i have not had a asthma attack in years and I mean years. i started having asthma/allergy problems about a month into taking this med. i have been on 2 rounds of steroids, steroid inhailer, singular, nebulizer and the symptons just don't go away. I never thought about the meds causing this. Has anyone else had a similar reaction?
If spiro is exacerbating your asthma then I would recommend trying another hormonal treatment, e.g. oral contraceptives:
