"i promised myself that if this medication ended up working i would write a review and tell others. well, glad to report it did! i never had acne until one day at 23 hormonal acne crashed the party. it stupidly took me a really long time to realize nothing over the counter was ever going to cut it. 
i started on 50 mg spirolactone but got impatient, even though this is a medication that i knew going in takes a long time to reach full efficacy. after a month i started taking 100mg. after 2.5 months of feeling like there was no difference it completely changed. i have not had a cystic pimple or breakout for weeks, my skin reminds me of how it was before this insanity began. even worth the very annoying side effects that come with diuretics."
