Hey All

As you may know - I am starting Byetta in 3 weeks ( it's chilling in the fridge as i speak) -but its my Xenical that is concerning me...

I have lost the princley sum of 6lbs in 9 weeks - and feel down about it.

Anyone else on it?

I tried it and gave up on it. Acomplia worked well for me until it was suspended.

I doubt xenical and byetta would be a good combinations

Hi

I was told that Byetta wasn't licensed for use with Xenical and they would clash with each other, as my specialists priority was my blood sugars first, then the weight, they've gone with the Byetta, however years ago I did take Xenical for about 6 mths and lost about 1 stone in total, most of which has gone back on!!

Apparently you can use Byetta and Xenical together!!!

I wouldn't want to though. The main side effect of them both added together would be no fun at all.
