Drug Uses
Aldactone is in a class of drugs called potassium sparing diuretics (water pill). It reduces the amount of fluid in the body without causing the loss of potassium. Aldactone is used for handling edema (swelling) and hypertension (high blood pressure). Aldactone is also used to treat potassium deficiency and hyperaldosteronism (a hormonal disorder).
How Taken
Aldactone comes as a tablet to take by mouth. The general dosage is a tablet a day, taken in the morning with a meal or taken two times a day with breakfast and lunch. This drug doesn`t treat, it only controls blood pressure levels, therefore, continue taking Aldactone even if you feel well. Don't stop taking Aldactone without your doctor`s approval.
Additional Information
Aldactone can also be used in combination with other drugs for treatment of precocious puberty or myasthenia gravis. Aldactone can also be used for treatment of female people with abnormal facial hair. Check with your physician about the possible risks of using this pill for your situation.
