Spironolactone is super easy to use! Simply take one tablet daily. It is not necessary to take the medication every day at the same time, but it is recommended to do it, so you create the habit of taking a tablet per day and to keep a stable dose in your blood.
Doctors usually prescribe 25 mg of spironolactone a day to treat acne but can go higher if needed.
The risks are very low, but some women have experienced unwanted side effects when using Spironolactone. Most common side effects reported at doses for hypertension treatment are nausea and vomiting, leg cramps, headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, itching, irregular menstrual cycles, high potassium levels, diarrhea, and abdominal cramping.
Serious side effects can include: skin rash, hives, fever, trouble breathing, swelling of your lips, mouth, tongue, or throat; electrolyte and/or fluid problems (mouth dryness, extreme thirst, fast heart rate, and dizziness, extreme weakness and tiredness, not being able to urinate), muscle weakness, not being able to move your legs and arms, extreme tiredness, tingling or numb feeling in your hands or feet, slow heart rate; redness, blistering, peeling, or loosening of your skin, including inside of your mouth.
The chances of serious side effects are extremely unlikely, but if you get ANY of those symptoms please STOP the medication ASAP and seek immediate medical attention (call 911 or go to the ER).
As with any medication, you should speak to your doctor about whether Spironolactone is right for you. Make sure to tell your doctor if you’re taking potassium supplements or have kidney or liver disease.

Spironolactone is a potassium-sparing diuretic medication that is normally used to treat hypertension. However low-dose spironolactone can be used to treat hormonal acne.
It works by blocking androgen receptors in the body and stopping the way skin cells respond to androgen “male” hormones. Do NOT take spironolactone if you have any kidney or liver problems or if you are taking potassium supplements.
Spironolactone is normally used to treat hypertension. In low doses, Spironolactone is used to treat acne.
This medication has a diuretic effect. To be safe while taking Spironolactone, make sure to drink at least 8 glasses of water per day.
Pandia Health’s doctors recommend allowing at least 12 weeks to see improvement of your acne. It can take between 3 to 6 months to see the complete effect of the medication.
Depending on the dosage you are taking and the condition you are using it for, it depends. Always ask your doctor if you want to stop the treatment to get professional advice and the best way to do it. But if you are on 25 mg or less, you can just stop the medication.
