have you had any side effects? Did I have side effects when changing my dose back to 50 or 100mg? On 100, I was tired, groggy, irregular periods, more acne, basically hated myself lol. When I went...

About a year ago I started spiro 50mg and cleared my acne pretty nicely but my doctor told me to up my dose to 75mg and 100mg, and then hell broke loose! My skin started breaking out in cysts all over...

What kind of bp are you using btw?

honestly, i had the worst cystic acne back last year october. my skin got better off of spiro, which is mainly for women, but spiro wasn't the biggest help because my acne came back. -__- so I ended u...

Haha I meant maybe you were using topicals or something, not that you didn't realize you weren't taking Spiro lol. It's interesting to know that a lower dose can work when a higher dose doesn't. Let u...

I started out on 100mg of spiro and started to get some zits here and there again so I asked to up my dosage and my obgyn prescribed me 150mg and I started to break out worse than when I started spiro...

I put up a lot of posts about this, so sorry if you have to hear about this again? My acne is driving me crazy. 9 months ago I was on 50mgs and I was clearing up just fine. All of a sudden, my doctor...

i dont know your skin hun or haven't seen it, yes 150 mg is one of the highest i have heard. My endo used to give 100mg to hirutism cases. I was offered like 25mg but never took it, i take the pill no...

just saw your post. so what topical are you using now and what do you use for exfoliation? having a good regimen as well as the spiro will keep you clear but the spiro alone most likely wont do it. ...

the same thing happened to me every single time my dosage was upped and when i went from 75 to 100mg and got a few new cysts in places i never get as well. i had them injected and then had my derm put...

+1 to LillyRose's comment. I've heard a lot of stories about people breaking out from MAC makeup. Maybe try a different brand. Here is a list of comedogenic ingredients (ingredients that can clog pore...

I have no idea, I'm sorry. bareMinerals have a very large range of colours and are *meant* to be good for your skin. Haha, thanks though. I'll try looking into it. Yeah, my breakouts are getting o...

I thought the breakouts would go away by now, but I still have them. And it's been over a month since I moved up dosages. I've used spiro for over 7 months. Whats going on? I'm not getting a few cys...

I'm having the same problem! I upped my dose from 75mg to 100mg and I'm breaking out super bad and it's been a month! I miss my skin! But I guess I have to keep waiting and see.

Clearing up again.

Are you changing your regimen on your own or at the advice of a physician? I wouldn't mess with it without a doctor's consent. To cure cystic acne along my chin, I've been taking 50 mg of spiro in con...

5 months ago I was taking 25mg of spiro, and upped the dose to 50 on my 3rd month. I started getting decently clear. All the cysts went away, all I had were a few white heads. After 41/2 months, I u...

I hear you on the BC thing. BC was the worst thing i ever did for acne. Spiro can mess with periods so make sure to let your derm know on your next visit. As for BP, it is supposed to be a preventa...

I am going to use the aztec clay tomorrow. I am a guy so just one concern. Is this strong enough that it is going to pull facial hair out or mess it up? If so I will just use this for my nose and fore...

Usually there is a breakout everytime you change dosages so i wouldn't stress it too much. How are you going to treat your acne topically? Good Luck! Well right now I'm using a regular neutrogena f...

Well I'm actually on 5th month now and I'm breaking out a little bit around my chin area...not quite sure what's the reason for that. So I'm using a little bit on Bp for that. But otherwise I'm on 7...

I have been on Spiro for 17 days now. 25 mg twice a day. No side effects at all. I see little changes, mostly with my overly production of oils on my face and in my hair. I use to blot 5 to 7 times a ...

Nice!! You saw that much improvement on 50 mg of spironolactone? Interesting. It makes me wonder if everyone should start out on lower amounts and then SLOWLY increase dosage. So happy for you!  ...
