Hi Mindy,

Your description seems to hint on an allergic reaction, so don't mess with spironolactone. Actually metformin should do the job, but it takes several months to have effects. I do not know what is "full dosage" of metformin. Everybody reacts individually, so the dosage has to be adjusted so. For your info

Sam
