THE TRUTH ABOUT ALDACTONE AND ITS BIZZARE SIDE-EFFECTS!

This video will explain about Spironolactone (brand name Aldactone) which is a type of medicine called a diuretic. These medicines are sometimes called "water tablets" because they make you pee more.
It is also an anti-androgen, which means it stops male hormones, such as testosterone, from working.
Spironolactone is used to treat build-up of fluid in your body (oedema) caused by heart failure or liver disease, where it treats build-up of fluid in your abdomen, called ascites.
Also in kidney disease - it treats a condition that causes your kidneys to leak large amounts of protein into your pee, called nephrotic syndrome.
It can also treat high levels of aldosterone (a hormone made by the adrenal glands)
It can also be used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) when other medicines have not worked.
Because it affects hormones, spironolactone is sometimes used to treat acne in women, excessive hair growth in women (hirsutism), and some types of hair loss (alopecia) in women, and to reduce testosterone in trans women.
It will need to be prescribed by a specialist for these conditions.
For acne, it can take up to 3 months before you notice any improvement.
For excessive hair growth and hair loss, it can take up to 6 months before you notice any improvement.
Spironolactone is only available on prescription. It comes as tablets.
Spironolactone also comes as tablets that contain other diuretics. When it's mixed with furosemide it's called by the brand name Lasilactone. When it's mixed with hydroflumethiazide it's called by the brand name Aldactide.
