Weight Loss
"I&#039;ve had an excellent experience on this medication. I have ben on the medication and it is now close to the time where I need to wean off.  I have had side effects from this medication, though they were short lived and tolerable. During the 1st 6 weeks (+/- a week), I experienced nausea, head aches, borborygmus (or a loud active sounding intestinal tract). I did not have any vomiting or diarrhea ever. I did occasionally experience constipation which was alleviated by taking Colace (1-2 pills 1-2 times daily as needed).  I began this journey almost a year ago to the date. I started out at 166 lbs (5&#039;4) and moderately overweight. I am now healthier and happier. I currently weight 138 lbs and have a target weight of 135 lbs.  Very successful."
