"i&#039;m up to 3mg dose.. only lost 8 lbs in 2 months. i was very leary starting this medicine due to the thyroid and nausea issues, but i gave it a try.. it did not curb my cravings. it did make me full fast.. so instead of eating 2 sandwiches, i would only be able to force 1 down, but i don&#039;t think its worth it. my dr says it takes 4 months to really kick in. side effects were dry mouth, horrific fatigue, and confusion. nothing too major, but like any drug there is something. i would not recommend this drug as it is not a fast solution to weight loss and it is pretty discouraging if you want to lose more than 1 lb a week even with injecting yourself."
