    I like Dyazide and Aldactizide, i only recomend using them friday night and staurday of the show...both of these are 1/3 loop and 2/3 potassium sparing, which will help you retain fullness yet work good enough to ddry you out...good luck...XXL

    Are these diuretics OTC ? What would I use for a diuretic if I were to be tested?

    So you are saying this will work well? The Dyazide and the Aldactizide can only be used for un tested competitions? I'm guessing that those two work better than Taraxatone...

    I actually have some Taraxatone.....but are Dyazide and Aldactizide persciption meds....or are they easily to get OTC?

    ......and get some sleep XXL......why you up so late....you get pushed to the couch last night.. LOL...

    Dyazide and Aldactizide are persciption meds. Not OTC.

    LOL...working afternoon shift... and i kick the wife to the couch... yeah right...

    Yes Aldectizide as well as Dyazide are both prescription diuretics, and they do work better then taraxatone in a way that they are faster acting...i have lost 12lbs of water before with Taraxatone in 3 days, so it does work...XXL

    Lasix i do not like and spironolactone is Aldactone, mild potassium sparing diuretic...i do not like it much as you have to take it for many days and that will interfear with carb up...once your body starts to extrude sodium it is very dificult to carb/fat load...XXL
