"i really wanted this medication to work and took it for 2 weeks.  the side effects were unbearable (i am not a weenie)!!!  headaches, nausea, dizziness and tinnitus were continuous.  i think you lose weight on this medication because you feel so miserable you don&#039;t even think about eating.  i want to lose weight, but don&#039;t want to feel totally crappy doing it.  back to weight watchers for me!! btw-i dos lose 6 pounds in 2 weeks but not worth the side effects!!"
