Resumen de Potassium Monitoring in Young Women Taking Spironolactone for Acne is Unnecessary
According to this study:
* Spironolactone, an effective and inexpensive treatment for hormonally mediated acne, is safe for healthy women to use without being monitored for hyperkalemia.
* Of 1,802 serum potassium measurements that were obtained, only 13 (0.72%) indicated hyperkalemia—and all 13 cases were mild.
