I've posted recently about taking Spiro. I just started taking my 4th month just a couple days ago. I'm taking 100mg. My face isnt horrible, its considered mild-moderate and I just get annoying little whiteheaRAB but after I pop them I get scabs. I can tell that spiro has helped my face a little but I'm still getting whiteheaRAB and also my face still gets oily. Throughout the day it gets really oily and I use bareminerals makeup so I have to reapply the mineral veil to suck some of the oil up. I know this sounRAB strange but before I go to bed I'll wash my face w/ sasylic acid and put on a benzoil p. and my face is pretty dry from it...and Im use to waking up every single day early for school and work and church, but this week is my spring break and I've been waking up about 10 and I've notice my face is ALOT more oiler the longer that I sleep. I thought spiro was supposed to help with the oil?? Since Im just starting my 4th month should I wait longer...or is that all that spiro is going to do for me??
 
Hey Krista,
I'm in the same boat! I am going to start my 5th month in one week, and I am not happy with the results thus far. I am still breaking out, definetly not as bad...it has imporved but not as much as I want. Every month I think this is it, I'm getting clear...then I break out again from my period (which is where I am right now). Seriously like a few days ago I was thinking yeah!!!! And today I have these three hideous cyst-ish (not huge, but definetly noticable). When I am clear I notice that my skin tone is different, smoother I guess. And, I am less oily, but I still have some oil. I have whiteheaRAB too, but they seem to be going away.

Does anyone out there think it is going to work for us?????
 
Krista,
At month four is when I added 50mgs to the 100mgs that I was taking. A total of 150 mgs. As soon as I did that I started really noticing a change for the good. I think you should up it 50mgs. Oh and this is weird but before my big breakout I was using over the counter stuff with that acid stuff and I would always clean my glasses with it be/c I was getting pimple where my glasses would sit. But now I don't use anything on my face (just a wet wash cloth) and i'm not getting any pimples there now. I think that stuff was breakouting me out. I'm doing soo much better now that I don't use anything.
