Hi, Jessica, Welcome to the board. I don't have any experience with aldactone. I'm only on MET so far (since july 2000). I'm going to give this a try first. I hope you get your answers. You might want to check the archives on this board, there may have been other posts regarding that medication. GOod luck! :)Monica At Sat, 9 Sep 2000, Jessica wrote: >
