These pills smell minty but it is normal, spirnolactone is the generic brand for
Aldactone. The dosage should be discussed with the Dr. that prescribed them to you.
I take these twice a day (150mg morning and same at night= 300mg a day) I am not
constantly in the bathroom. But hey with these PCOS frequently going to the
bathroom is no punishment if it helps with the symptoms.
