Lipozene And Lamictal
UpdatedI am taking both lamictal and topomax for seizures and would like to try lipozene. I have lost about 80 lbs. of weight but now I have so much flab that I need to get rid of in my mid section, lower thighs, and inner thighs.
I've been excercising for the past two months now and nothing is not working. I've been weight lifting, working out on the machines, even using the treadmill and eliptical, but nothing seems to work!
When I saw this commercial, I thought about it and was wondering if it would be safe? I know that it can be bought in retail stores like Walgreens so, I would try it there anyway.
Liposuction is so expensive and I cannot afford that, so, this would probably be my only way out at this point unless there is another route I can take!
Does anyone know if this is safe to take with my med's? I would ask my doctor, but she is on leave right now until May and I want to get this flab off before summer if possible!
Thanks!

These 'weight loss' supplements, such as the Lipozene you mentioned contain Glucomannan, which is considered a type of dietary fiber.
The problem with them is that they are not actually proven to aid in weight loss, as a matter of fact, the manufacturers have been disciplined and fined by the FDA for making misleading claims about them. You can read about this in the last paragraph at this link:

And, since you do suffer from seizures and take prescription medications, you should really ask your doctor or pharmacist, before using any such supplement product. They aren't tested for possible problems and interactions, as is done with actual prescription medications.
Has your doctor provided you with any advice?
Since you take seizure medication I would check with your pharmacist, since lipozene is natural fiber you might be ok. I take anti-hypertensives and am doing fine. As for lipo surgery that won't do anything for sagging skin, need a tummy tuck. Congrats on your success so far, I hope to hear more progress from you.

I'm taking lamictal and ability for bipolar disorder and I take benadryl for sleep and also iron vitamins and I want to try lipozene just to lose a certain amount of pounds and then I will stop when I reach the weight that I want. So will this be safe and effective for me to try?
