Effectiveness will vary from person to person. It depends on the dosages, the formulation, etc. However, I can tell you that the chances of you being prescribed Demerol by mouth aren't good. Most Md.'s will not prescribe Demerol tablets. You will probably be given oxycodone as a take home med.

When it comes to medication, you should seek a medical professional. I would not self-medicate if I were you. There are dangerous consequences if you use medications without a prescription.

The supplement has long been recognized as an effective fat burner and immune system booster.
