"i&#039;ve been taking 100mg twice a day for about 7 or 8 years now for cystic acne (i&#039;m 45 years old).  i tried antibiotics and multiple topicals and washes prescribed by my dermatologist.  spironolactone is the only thing that decreased my cystic acne by about 80%. i also used epiduo for spot/preventative treatment of acne on my chin but it really dried out my skin.  when i got my clarisonic 4 or 5 years ago, it was like the miracle i had been hoping for!  i use clarisonic in the mornings and just wash with a washcloth and cerave foaming facial cleanser and use cerave lotion for my skin care.  i actually get complements on my &quot;beautiful&quot; skin now!  

i hope you have as great of an experience as i did with spironolactone!!!"
