Question: Aldosterone, potassium, spironolactone question

Can spironolactone increase potassium levels in someone who has normal adrenal glands In other words, if spironolactone corrects a low potassium problem, is that a guarantee that an adrenal problem is present?
If aldosterone and renin levels are tested (blood and urine) when a person is taking spironolactone, would the results be accurate?
This is a great web site! Thanks in advance!
