    I have tried HCTZ with bad side effects but recently just started taking dandelion and notice it helps some. I'm also considering taking Spironolactone. I'm weary of the spironolactone though as I believe direutics cause fluid retention in the long run. Could be incorrect though. Has anyone taken spironolactone with good results/minimal side effects?

    Where ever I park my RV
    I used to be on Hydrochlorothiazide (I think I spelled it correctly!) and was at a Dr appt (I forget why) but that Dr insisted I get off the Hydro and go on Spironolactone. I can't say as either one has done anything for me, but with slightly elevated blood pressure it might be doing something for me. As for side effects, I have not had any.
