I was on Yasmin for two years. I loved it because there was no more acne, no more heavy periods, or cramps. Back in February I had an episode of dizziness and my heart racing. I was taken to the ER and nothing was wrong except low potassium. About a month ago I started having the same symptoms again. My doctor took me off of Yasmin two weeks ago and I am still having symptoms. I am currently being evaluated by a cardiologist due to chest pain, heart palpitations, and fast heart rate. I feel so bad and I have no energy. I am usually bubbly and full of life. Does anyone know how long it takes for this medication to get out of your system and feeling back to normal again?

Just had my "Maxide" dosage increased from 12.5 to 25mg. I am concerned about potassium loss (<4.0). What is the other form of diuretic other than thiazide?

I understand it pulls the salt & water while targeting potassium chloride and leaving levels in the body essentially unchanged.
