"this drug is extremely effective, and i lost nearly 14 pounds in 8 days.  however, i had severe side effects and took myself off the drug after becoming so dehydrated that i had to go get 2 bags of iv fluid.  i was so dehydrated, my veins were collapsing whenever they tried to start the iv.  



i am extremely active, and training for half and full marathons.  i guess my energy needs are too great for what this drug allows you to consume.  every time i ate i got extremely gassy, had severe heartburn, and had the runs. i physically had to make myself eat.  my stomach would not take or process much water at a time either.  if you work out a lot - stay away



i definitely think in a few years there will be lawsuits over this drug."
