What Causes Body Ache And Headache While On Spironolactone?
I have been experiencing body ache and headache for the past 6-7 weeks. I currently take birth control and spirono lactone. I also had strep throat 6 weeks ago and was give PCN for this. The headaches and body aches have continued to worsen and have started to get the chills. I m just wondering if the spirono lactone could be playing a factor, I just started taking that about a month ago but had these h/a before starting the spironolactone.

Hello,
It is not related to spironolactone.
As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
