Can Dionelle, Glucophage or Spironol cause acne?

Hello, I have been diagnosed with pcos and a month ago the doctor prescribed me contraceptive pills dionelle, spironol (antiandrogenic effect) and glucophage xr500, because I have insulin resistance. 7 days ago I started taking 2 Dionelle blister and for a few weeks something has been popping up on my face all the time. I have not had such acne for a long time. How long should this be normalized? Do the other drugs they take also have an effect on this?

Yes, acne may occur when using Dionelle, this is a frequently reported side effect when using this preparation. Dionelle is a complex hormonal agent, the period of adaptation of the body to the drug is assumed to be about 3 months. If after this time the skin problems do not disappear or intensify, it is worth consulting them with a doctor. Of course, if you think earlier that changes on the skin significantly reduce the quality of life, it is also worth reporting it to a specialist. I enclose links to websites where you can check the availability of Dionelle, Spironol and Glucophage XR and book medicines at the pharmacy of your choice: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/23781/dionelle-tabletki/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/74115/spironol-tabletki/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/33313/glucophage-xr-tabletki-o-przedluzonym-uwalnianiu/apteki Side effects are worth reporting. Below I send materials about how and why it is worth doing: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane I encourage you to read the materials that may be helpful when taking Dionelle: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-prawidlowo-stosowac-antykoncepcje If stationary contact with a doctor would be difficult, through Whereabouts It is possible to use teleconsultation: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja
