I started to use the 15mg reductil on Wednesday (its now Sunday), as I have a very sweet tooth it has been a good option for myself to help combat the cravings. From the first day I could feel the tablet working, I no longer craved any type of food or sweets, I eat only when im hungry, which is around 4-5hrs etc (normal meal times), but when it comes to portion size im eating less than half what I would normally do. As I feel to be getting that extra help from the tablet, it has also helped my mindset, I now try to choose a healthier option & there is no snacking between meals at all. The down side is Im more thirsty, but I suppose this is a good thing really as I dont drink much anyway. I have not noticed any other side effects but it is early days.
In four days I have lost 4lbs but I expect the rate of loss to decrease over the next few weeks. I will log in every few weeks with an update.
Thank you for the feedback & tips for what to include in my review.
After trying most forms of slimming, I contacted my doctor who agreed to start me on the 15mg of Reductil, 1 capsule in the morning. The cost to me will be the NHS prescription charge every 2 weeks. There are many sites on the internet that offer Reductil from £75 for 4 months supply to £100 per month, unless you know of someone who has purchased & used medication from an online store, my advice would be to speak to your doctor.
I realise one of the side effects of this drug is a dry mouth, it probably makes it worse for myself as I really dont drink much fluids. For any wanna be moms out there! yes I am drinking alot more now.
After trying many natural/herbal slimming tablets with no sign of them working, I am more than happy with the way the tablets are working for me at the moment, I dont have my head in the clouds thinking this is it, its going to be a long road ahead in which side effects can take hold at any moment. I had to see my doctor after taking 2 tablets to get checked over, but he said everything seems ok & I will need to see him again in two weeks.
I will keep updating with how im doing & if any side effect arise.

If I carry on eating the way I am I'm going to need bags of this. Welcome to ciao.

Good first review but as the others say if you add more detail when you've been on it for longer you will get a higher rating x

I have never heard of this product before now, is it prescribed by a doctor or do you buy it over the counter? I personally feel it's very difficult to write a review on a product you've only been using a few days as you can't tell at this stage if there are any side effects and if it does really help you lose weight...
