"i have been taking this medication for approximately 5 weeks. along with smaller portions/better food choices, and increased exercise, i have lost 19 pounds.  it seems to be working well. i don&#039;t know if it&#039;s the medication or the exercise, but i have experienced some jitteriness, over-stimulation, insomnia and menstrual upset.  the worst effect would have to be the taste.  i definitely get the dryness/unpleasant taste, but it&#039;s nothing that extra water and some mouthwash can&#039;t fix.   

overall, i am extremely satisfied with this medication, and would reccommend it."
