Decrease fluid/salt: You can reduce fluids to 1200 cc and avoid salt but if short of breath go to ER right away. You should not run out of medicines and you should call your doctor's office to get the doctor on call to call in the prescription.

Spironolactone: Take your other Meds and get back on schedule Mond ay. A couple of days off spironolactone shouldn't make much difference.
