What Causes Nausea And Dizziness While On Spironolactone?

My daughter, age 28, started taking Spironolactone yesterday for fluid retention. She felt awful at work today, nauseated, dizzy, out of it. Now she has a splitting headache; the worst one of her life. Feels like pressure, like her skull will explode. Tearful and fearful. Does she need to go the ER?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Electrolytes levels in blood should be checked. Ecg should be taken to rule out dysrhythmias. A consultation with physician is well appreciated.
Thanks
