Lungs
I have ALD and am currently on 50mg Spironolactone for ascites and 40mg Propanolol for varices. I keep getting slightly bubbly lungs when I lie down for a while and in the morning. Is this related to the ALD or entirely separate? Thanks. Wendy

SPIRONOLACTONE
I used to take Furesemide which used to make me rather lightheaded and feeling tired. The consultant has changed this for Spironolactone 25 mg, it seems to be OK but I keep feeling very itchy on my Back and my arm. Cannot see any Rash though. I wonder if anyone has experienced this itchiness whilst

Suggestions for reducing spironolactone and furosemide without having a rebound
Anyone with experience or tips for reducing and coming off of diuretics. I have read about and experienced a rebound effect of putting on water weight quickly. My labs are great and my liver seems fine after 7 months of no alcohol, healthy living and some herbs my doctor approved I could take. I

I'm sitting in bed drinking a nice cup of tea taking my daily 5mg bisoprolol 50mg of Losartan 25mg Spirolactone (rivaroxaban in the evening) and still in NSR after cardio version almost 2 weeks ago. I know it's early days but seize the moment - a big thank you to all on this forum for your help and guidance

Pcos has anyone tried spironolactone?
Hi I have PCOS my periods are regular however I have severe hirsutism (excess hair) and acne and hair loss. They always told me to use the pill but I don’t want to because of the risk of blood clots as my grandma had it years ago because of the pill. From my research I have seen that spironolactone is

Side-effects of Omeprazole
Hi, you lot! I was prescribed Omeprazole in December after a gastroscopy and continued it during a hospital stay (AKI, ascites, liver stuff). Received no diagnosis in the two weeks and was discharged in to the care of my GP. He diagnosed a chest infection and pretty severe anaemia. So that was the hospital
