Looking after ourselves

in response to: Re: Weight gain on medication

Hi @soppykat . I don't know you but we share the same problem. Weight gain from medication. I have found a medication that can maybe help. My GP put me on a medication that inhibits lipids and i have lost about 10kg in six months. Not sure they will let me say the name of that medication on here but i hope they do. Diet and exercising didn't work. This is the first time i have lost weight. Warning. The side effects are a bit much sometimes. Anyway maybe mention it to your GP and see what they reckon.
