Should I stop taking Spironolactone after my mommy makeover?

Asked By:Gemini71 in Raleigh-Durham, NC

I've been on 100 mg of spironolactone for acne for about 2 years now and it works great. However, I recently had a mommy makeover, 12 days ago and read today where diuretics are bad for patients after abdominalplasty. Should I stop the spironolactone? Or is my daily dosage safe? My concern is regarding the swelling that normally comes with abdominalplasty. I don't want to contribute to the swelling. Of course I will touch base wirh my PS, but wanted to ask the RS community. Thank you.
