Guest guest Posted January 7, 2001 Report Share Posted January 7, 2001 Someone in my local support group is taking it. She implied that a doctor wouldn't give it to her so she was taking medicine prescribed for someone else. She doesn't seem to be having many problems with it, but I worry about any wls patient taking any type of medicine without the guidance of a doctor.
