There is no set time for you to begin seeing results because people respond to medicine differently. Ask your health care provider about what a realistic expectation is for you.
The side effects that you may experience include: nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, stomach (abdomen) pain, headaches, tiredness, (fatigue), upset stomach, dizziness, feeling bloated, belching, gas, stomach flu, and heartburn.
Results do vary, but some of our patients have lost 15-20% of their starting body weight in about a year. We have seen weight loss of 10 to 20 pounds after the first month of being on the compounded medicine. The addition of healthy eating habits and low impact exercise assists with achieving increased weight loss.
Traveling with the medicine is not a problem. Similar to other medicines handled during air travel it’s recommended to transport your medication in your carry-on bag as it may freeze in the luggage compartment below the plane. Keeping your medications in one personal item / toiletry bag is good practice for TSA check-in.
Don’t worry if you miss a dose and the next scheduled dose is more than 2 days away (48 hours). Take the missed dose as soon as possible.
If you miss a dose and the next scheduled dose is less than 2 days away, do not administer the dose. Wait untill your next scheduled dose.
If you miss doses for more than 2 weeks, call your health care provider to talk about how to restart your treatment. With consultation, you can typically take your next dose on the regularly scheduled day unless another treatment schedule is outlined.
