I have been suffering from acne since age 14. It was kind of in control over my 20's just by applying gel's/creams, face washes. Now I'm 35 and suddenly over the last few months i've noticed quite alot of break out and quite big pimples. I went to a new dermatologist, who prescribed Aldactone 25g (3 times a day) and also Azithromycin (twice a day). I'm wondering if both drugs are okay to be taken together.

Answer: Are Aldactone and Azithromycin okay to be taken together for acne treatment?
Hello and thank you for your question. Generally, spironolactone does not cause spider veins. If you are looking for acne treatment, I would recommend consulting a board certified dermatologist for evaluation of your skin and discussion of appropriate treatment. Best of luck.
I have been unimpressed with Spironolactone for Seborrhea. I would recommend scheduling an appointment with a Dermatologist at 8 weeks after starting medication for an alternative treatment plan. What you see is what you get at that point, typically.
Hello and thank you for your question. One of the common side effects of spironolactone is that it can cause irregular menses. I would recommend consulting a board certified gynecologist for evaluation of irregular menses and discussion of appropriate treatment. Best of luck.
