I have taken this pill on and off for 2 years. I take it for 30 days and then go off for 30 days. It is an amazing pill and if it wasn't recommended that you do not continue regular use I would take it everyday. I have a very large appetite and problems with eating. I can eat and eat and eat...but when I am on this pill I have no appetite at all! I have lost a total of 30lbs over the 2 years. ... Show Full Comment

I have lost 26 lbs to date with a combined low-carb diet. I lost 10 lbs in 2 weeks. The only negative is dry mouth; however, that makes you drink more water, which is good for anyone. I highly recommend it and encourage anyone overweight to try it.

Comment:
This drug is amazing. I lost 70 pounds in under 3 months and that was without exercise. It takes away all hunger and can keep you awake for days, so you must take a sleeping pill while on it. I would eat maybe once a day, whatever I wanted. Once I got off the pill, I gained all the weight back because I wasn't eating right. You need to take the pill and get on a diet, like Jenny Craig, that w ... Show Full Comment
