Can Spirononolactone Be Taken Along With Doxycycline For Harmonal Acne?
I have hormonal acne on my chin- just developed it recently. I was thinking of trying spironolactone because I ve heard that it works well for hormonal acne, but I m a bit worried about the notorious initial breakout period. Would it help the initial breakout if I started it with the antibiotic doxycycline for a month or so? or would that make my skin worse? thank you!

Hi,
Spironolactone alone would be helpful.
There are no proven interactions of spironolactone with doxycycline, so they can be used together.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
