Hey everyone! Spironolactone users- i'm just wondering whether any of you experience an increase in breakouts when you up your dosage? I recently had mine upped by 25 mgs (from 75 to 100) and am now b...

No problem, hopefully you'll be totally clear with the increased dosage! For me the negatives outweighed the positives when I was on spiro. After about the year mark I gained 20lbs (I went from 110lbs...

Congrats! You cleared a lot since your last topic! I was clear on 100mg but had tons of side effects. I lowered my dose to 75mg and the side effects mostly went away but I started breaking out again....

Thanks so much for your reply! I think you're right- I'm going to stick to the 75 mg dosage and wait it out. Was your acne as severe as mine? How long did it take for you to start noticing improvement...
