A man in his 50s noticed swelling and mild tenderness in both breasts, along with leg swelling and general weakness. His history & medication prescribed: Type 2 diabetes (2 years) and chronic liver disease (2 years), managed with metformin, glimepiride, spironolactone, and torsemide. The workup: Tests and a breast ultrasound confirmed gynecomastia. The culprit: Spironolactone, a diuretic widely used in liver disease, is a known cause of gynecomastia. The outcome: After stopping spironolactone, his breast tenderness improved and the swelling stopped progressing. If you notice unusual changes after starting a drug, talk to your doctor. Never stop a prescribed medication on your own.
