Can Intake Of Spironolactone Cause Gastrointestinal Problems?
Recently started on spironolactone 50 mg daily for adult acne. Took only few weeks. Came down with gastrointestinal bug symptoms--nausea, watery stools, tired, low grade fever which have subsided. Still have low appetite & noticed my stools are lighter in color. I usually love coffee but it doesn t taste very good. I stopped taking spironolactone when I had the bug .
