XENICAL AND DIABETES

[shandromeda]

Hi i was just wondering about re starting on xenical again i have been on it in the passed way before i was diabetic but to be fair i didn't really try very hard on it and got all the yucky side affects and came back off ,but that was years ago and now i'm more set to drop some weight i'm thinking of having another go,does any one on here take it and is it ok for diabetic's to be on this i think it is as my doctor offered it to me about a month ago but then i said no but i'm changing my mind,i've dropped my carb's down so i don't need help there i've had loads of great advice i've followed and thank you very much,just need xenicol advice this time please,thank you ,shan x

Hi shan.
You get around ?

Here is a link to all the information you are likely to want about Xenical (Orlistat).

Hope that helps.

AS far as know it's safe. I got some once, but I didn't lose much weight. Lowering my carbs did that much better.
