Well I actually stopped Spiro (at least temporarily) to see if the twitching is caused by it - it's random, all over in different muscles. Can be a side effect of diuretics, though doesn't seem typic...

Cherrysoda, are you still on 25mg-s? Then it's great news that you already see improvement Silly question: have you experienced any muscle twitching at all? I have it going on for a while now and ...

Ok, so my plan is to go on low dose Accutane, just until my face clears up, and in the meantime continue Spiro so it has time to kick in, but I get rid of my acne sooner. Is that complete rubbish? ...

Hi Shawna, so now you're taking Accutane + Spiro at the same time? What is your Accutane dosage? (Whoops, sorry - I just realised Tretinoin is the cream ^^ Here Accutane is also sold under the bra...

4 weeks update. Sigh. I really wish I could say something positive and reassurring on this occasion, but I can't. A month back I thought my breakouts will be gone by now, but I seem to have underestim...

Is anyone else experiencing muscle twitches on Spiro? They are driving me nuts!

Hello, My question might be a bit silly, but I'm at my wits end with this. I had some cystic pimples in clusters and of course, I managed to overdry them with creams. Now they are peeling off, but w...

From what I've read, many people attempted to lower the dosage and started breaking out again

Week 3 update: switched to 100mg and plan to stay on this dosage (maybe increase to 150mg if I relapse). At the moment, skin is healing nicely, but I hope not to jinx myself. Some pimples still have t...

Thank you Jenny, how kind of you I am very happy it seems to be working for you, and you're lucky to have avoided Accutane alltogether. It's really heartwrenching to see them come back even after 2 ...

I'm in the middle of my 1st week on 75mg-s and since last evening, I am experiencing sharp/burning muscle pain on the right side of my spine... I have no idea if Spiro is causing tbis?

2 weeks update. A week ago I switched to 50mg/day and from yesterday, I am taking 75. I wanna see results asap. The nightmare on my chin is still not over and it is clearing very, very gradually. I ...

Good to hear about your success How long did it take to clear up?

I am new to Spiro myself but according to what I've read from everyone, I would advise you to stick with it! Maybe this is when it'll get you clear after the initial breakout. I'd definitely give it a...

Well it might be that the Spiro started kicking in...

I'm having the heartbeat thingy too, but for me it started earlier on. It's an anxiety thing (for me). Can't wait to see results with Spiro, now is a disaster. I just switched to 50mg after 1 week o...

Aballarina, how much are you taking?

I have no one else to complain to, so why not to add this here. I look disgusting. I know it's too early to expect anything of Spiro after one week, but there are better days and there are worse - thi...

Besides, Yasmine/Yaz contains 25mg Spiro if I am not mistaken.

Update after 1 week: not much new to report yet, except that I get the most entertainingly vivid dreams ever! I read they occur if you take it near bedtime. It's the 3rd night in a row my dreams like ...

Thank you for the replies. I'll try to stick with it for now as I know this is the only drug that seems safe to take long term. My lightheadedness might have been a coincidence or me being hypochondr...

Two courses of Accutane, 1: for 9 months - no problems whatsoever, 2: for 4 months. After the 2nd course: - Inexplicable vision problems - Previously mild tinnitus is now awful - Dry eyes - D...

My doc put me on Spiro eventually, and although I've only taken two 25mg pills so far, I'm feeling quite dizzy/unsteady. Can't tell if it's the med or psychological? My blood pressure is quite low to...

Hello people, Is it just me or do you also sometimes get 1000000000000000 whiteheads in a certain area of your face? They are really annoying, even though they are tiny, because I know they can flar...

Hey all, I wonder if any of you guys had experience with this drug. Experience, not assumptions... The reason why I would choose it is because Spiro can possibly cause my tinnitus to worsen (along ...
