Should you split your dose of spironolactone for best results?

DGF1968
I am taking spironolactone for adult female hormonal acne. I currently take my full dose in the evening. I now have to discontinue my birth control pill because I’ve turned 50. I am worried about hormonal breakouts. Would it be better to split my dose of spironolactone rather than take it at once? I am on 200mg/day.
