It is also used for the diagnosis and treatment of primary aldosteronism.

How it Works:
Spironolactone works by blocking the action of aldosterone, a hormone that helps the body retain sodium and water. By blocking aldosterone, spironolactone increases the excretion of sodium and water while simultaneously retaining potassium and magnesium, making it a “potassium-sparing” diuretic.

- Congestive Heart Failure: To reduce edema and improve heart function.
- Cirrhosis of the Liver: To manage fluid retention and ascites (fluid buildup in the abdomen).
- Malignant Ascites: To treat fluid buildup in the abdomen caused by cancer.
- Nephrotic Syndrome: To reduce edema and protein loss in the urine.
- Primary Aldosteronism: To diagnose and treat a condition where the adrenal glands produce too much aldosterone.
