Guest guest Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 Have you heard of the weight loss med that's available over the counter now? It's called Alli (pronounced all-lie). I think they could have come up with something a whole lot better than that. All I can think of is the greatest fighter of all time--Muhammad Ali. (lol) Anyway, it's a half dose of Orlistat that's been on the market for a long time for weight loss. The full strength med causes a lot of "intestinal discomfort such as gas or abnormal bowel movements" from what I read. But the half strength Alli is not supposed to cause those problems. I had seen it on the counter at the pharmacy but since the display didn't say what it was for I assumed it was for erectile dysfunction or something. ROFL But I picked up a Woman's World magazine and read about it last night. I'm considering trying it but first I have to contact my Internal Med doctor. The article says if a person is on immunosuppressants or blood thinners they can't take it. The article says "Alli's 60 mg. dose of orlistat works 85% as well as a 120 mg. prescription dose." Sharon Sharon...... . Sharon, did Cymbalta cause you to gain weight??? I'm not sure if I want to ask for Wellbutrin or Cymbalta. ------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- - Don't be flakey. Get Yahoo!
