the only side affects i got was coughs having lil oily accidents if i ate to much fat but i had palpatations around the time of taking them so not sure if they made my heart faster or not as i'm a worrier anyway and i was a bit down already at that time. What tablets r they?

I discussed slimming pills with my GP (I have about 4 stone to lose) - she said that some of them are very effective, but she said without exception, every single one of her patients has regained the weight and significantly more as well, within weeks of stopping them. Apparently you can only stay on them for maximum of a year.
