Working / Worked
Tried this several years ago, it was working. But simply couldn't afford it. And my insurance wouldn't pay for it.
I have been using meridia for 1 month and have lost 15 lbs I have combined it with Weight Watchers and increasing my exercise. I feel that it has worked well and the only side effects that I have is a dry mouth. Im taking 10mg once a day and I was wondering if anyone else is taking this medication and how they feel about it.
