[QUOTE="Mep, post: 1457411, member: 211362"] I was on it for 5 years and I didn't tolerate it the entire time and was only on it because docs insisted. I know some lose weight on it, but it didn't do that for me. My symptoms on it was nausea and diarrhoea... a lot of both. It was 3 years after being on it that I developed a whole pile of gastric issues that haven't gone away and are chronic. So not sure whether this drug was the trigger or even the cause for some of my problems. I also found it didn't have a huge impact on blood sugar levels... they had to add other drugs to the mix for me before they realised no drug was working and I got the diagnostic tests done again. I'm now on insulin due to being insulin deficient. [/QUOTE]
