Aldactone (Spironolactone) is a diuretic medicine used to treat several different conditions, such as high blood pressure, heart failure, and kidney disease. Spironolactone works by preventing the body from absorbing too much salt and keeping the right balance of fluids in the body. It is also used for hirsutism, which is an abnormal hair growth pattern in women.
Spironolactone is a medication used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. By lowering high blood pressure, Aldactone helps reduce the risk of strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems, and treating edema caused by certain conditions such as heart failure and liver disease.
Aldactone works by removing excess fluid, thus improving symptoms such as breathing problems. Also, it helps regulate levels of aldosterone, a natural substance produced in excess in some conditions. Spironolactone is also known as a “water pill” or potassium-sparing diuretic.
Aldactone comes in the form of a tablet and is usually taken orally with food or milk to avoid stomach upset. Take Spironolactone regularly to get the maximum benefit from it, and to take it at the same time each day as directed. Even if you feel well, keep taking the medication, as most people with high blood pressure do not experience any symptoms.
The dosage strength and duration of Aldactone will vary depending on the condition it is being used to treat.
Aldactone and its generic alternative of Spironolactone are available in the following forms and strengths.
Treatment with ALDACTONE should be continued for at least two weeks since the maximum response may not occur before this time. Subsequently, dosage should be adjusted according to the response of the patient.
Talk to your doctor if you want to stop taking spironolactone. If you stop it too soon, your condition may get worse. If you’re taking it for oedema, stopping it can cause fluid to build up in your body again.
You should take spironolactone once a day in the morning. However, if you are taking a high dose, you may need to take it twice a day. If you are taking it twice a day, make sure that you take the second dose no later than 4pm, as taking it later than this may cause you to wake up in the night to pee.
The long-term use of spironolactone in the treatment of acne in women appears to be safe. Side effects, however, are common, although not usually a cause for stopping the drug.
