Initial Breakout/Purge? Hi! I'm a little over 3 weeks into taking Spiro 100mg daily which I know is too early to see results
I had a really bad breakout (like, the worst in years) with an explosion of closed comedones about a month into first taking it, and then like clockwork another terrible breakout a Yes
I've read on a number of reviews that sometimes the first 4-6 weeks is worse but that it gets Spironolactone
In short, when androgens and hormone receptors interact, acne happens, but Spironolactone prevents that from ever happening to begin with
Spironolactone is an orally administered, brand-name hormonal therapy often identified by its brand-name alternatives, such as Aldactone (oral tablet)
Teen girls are usually recommended to try other options first, and doctors are unlikely to
The breakouts I was talking about in my last post are already all going down, besides one on my chin that's being stubborn, but even that one is technically small compared to the ones I used to have all the time
if that doesn’t work, I suppose I’ll dose up to 150 or 200 of spiro
Get emergency medical help if you have signs of an allergic reaction to spironolactone: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat
Patients intolerant of initial dose: May decrease to 25 mg orally every With spironolactone I had a bad initial breakout in the 1st month on 100mg, then my skin cleared up almost completely over the next 2 months
Going to college in 2 weeks so if things get bad they're probably gonna get bad once I get there
Doses range anywhere from 50 mg to 200 mg a day, depending on the patient’s size and 5 months in and still breaking out
High Dose: Sometimes, an increased dose of up to 100 mg is required to treat stubborn acne like cystic acne effectively
