Is there any medicine to be slim?
There are many diet medications and pills that claim to help you lose weight and aid slimming. There are also many herbal supplements that say they can reduce your weight. There is little or no evidence that these readily available pills and supplements work. Studies and articles confirm the lack of evidence that over the counter weight loss supplements and tablets work. Beware of claims made by internet sites promoting the sale of herbal supplements that will quickly make you lose weight. If you are considering using medication when slimming this should be done under the supervision of a fully trained and registered doctor. Doctors are the only people that can provide prescription only slimming medication. Any diet or slimming pills should also be part of a weight loss management plan which also looks at changes in diet, lifestyle and exercise. When any patient is taking prescribed slimming pills they should have regular check-ups with a doctor to monitor their response and health. Beware of medications available on the internet as these will often be fake or can potentially be harmful to your health. Only take medication under the supervision of an experienced doctor.
