I love it love it love it!!!! I get the occasional heartburn, but i still like this drug. I hope that if Dr decides to stop treatment i wont have the problems mentioned in other posts. Living on Saltines for a year and dropping weight quickly makes me a lot more aware of what drugs i use. So Far So good. Been taking with hyosycamine and very happy overall.

The drug is VERY effective. When I had trouble swallowing I would open the capsule and swallow the contents whole. The drug was equally effective when taken this way.
