Aldactone/Spiro users: A quick POLL

If you are using Aldactone/Spiro, what doseage are you taking and is it working for you?


My derm prescribed me 50mgs a day and on some days I am taking 100mgs. It seems to be making my hands and lips dry. But, I have not had a new pimple since I started it. I still have several that are clearing up from before.
