Time for Spiro to take effect

[Guest guest]

Sorry if this has been covered before, but I need to know how long it

will take for an increased dosage of spiro to take effect? It seems to

me we discussed this before and it was 1 week, is that right? I am

adding 25 mg at a time and want to stop at the lowest dose, of course.

thanks,

Kim

Should be stable by 2 weeks, if there are no symptoms due to high

blood pressure or low K then increasing every 2-4 weeks is the way I

do it. It also depends on how much you are adding relative to how

much you are on. Adding 25 to 25 may get a faster and bigger

response than adding to 250. Most effects will be max by 2 weeks.
