Dr cycles me on for 5 days and off for 2 days. It keeps your body from building up a tolerance to the medication. Take a month break every few months along with cycling on/off each week. Lost 77 lbs, kept it off during the month long breaks. I have 30 more lbs to loose, eating low carb and calorie, healthy fats and lean protein. Exercise 4 times a week.

I've lost 30 lbs almost three months. There are days that I don't take it, too.

so far it has helped decrease my appetite which in turn has helped me lose weight. I seem to not eat as much at each meal as I did before. at my age I was struggling trying to diet and this helped curve the appetite as well

After struggling with my weight and at age 46, I was able to lose 30 lbs. easily with this drug. I would recommend it with Dr. supervision of course.
