Redotex When To Take It

Weight loss pill ## how do you take these pills and what are they for? ## WELL THIS IS A DIET PILL THAT WAS TAKING OF THE MARKET IN TH U.S. BACK IN 1989 FOR THE REASON THAT IT WAS HURTING EITHER UR LUNGS ECT. IT HAS A LAXITIVE IN IT AND WAS KNOWN TO HELP YOU LOSE UP TO 6 LBS A WEEK,WAS RX FOR THE OVER WEIGHT PEOPLE(OB) ## This drug, however, is still available in Mexico, as well as several other countries, so unfortunately, those who self-medicate, for whatever reason they are doing so, can pick it up there very cheaply. In most cases, you can get away with carrying small amounts, around 3 months worth or less, of a drug into the US, without having it seized or questioned by customs. Customs agents are not trained to keep track of which drugs are or are not legal in the US, and if someo...

Weight loss ## This is a Mexican diet drug, thus illegal to have in the U.S. The U.S has issued warnings about it and are severely cracking down on its import. ## I read the post from the 80's-90's. I took them anyhow and lost the weight. After taking the pill I was active and started eating healthy. I let myself go and regained the weight, there were other factors involved in my personal life as well. I was however able to maintain my weight for almost 2 years before I went back to my poor eating habits and stopped going to the gym. Since I live in a border town Redotex is extremely popular on both sides of the border for weight loss. Verwon are you a customs or INS agent? I only ask because you keep stressing what is legal and illegal. ## No, but since some people are not awar...

How many months can you take Redotex for? I am currently on my 3 weeks and am seeing AWESOME results. But I still have about 60 more pounds to go! How long can I take them for until I have to give my body a break? I know for each month it is 3 weeks on and 1 week off and then on again? But for how long can I do that for? I am on a 90 day program now. ## Hello Kat, According to the FDA these pills can only be acquired in Mexico. This is because the manufacturing company has not submitted a new drug application (NDA) to the FDA which makes it misbranded under section 502. I have provided a link to the FDA page where I found this information. With that being said, I have not found any credible sources that show case studies which show a obvious correlation between long term administration ...

I start taking redotex for almost 5 days. My whole body hurt and I have a severe headache. is this normal from the beginning? I take motrin it help. I need to take motrin 3 times day because of my whole body hurt and my headache also. Does anybody feel that way from the beginning. ## Hello, Missy! How are you? You need to see your doctor and inform that you were taking Redotex, to have yourself checked out. The FDA has issued a warning on this and banned the import of it, due to the fact that it was found to contain a dangerous combination of undeclared drug ingredients, including benzodiazepines (which risk being habit forming and causing seizures upon withdrawal) and amphetamine like stimulants. Is there anything else I can help with?

This drug has very strange side effects for me. Worst part is I have actually gained weight. I am suspecting this is due to the bloating because I have been eating low cal and exercising. I wake up in a serious haze. I have taken 3 pills and am not continuing -sad because the drug is expensive. I would not recommend. ## Redotex is actually a very dangerous medication to use, which is why it has been banned for sale and use in the U.S. It contains a strange combination of hormones, amphetamines, antihistamine and Benzodiazepines. That said, your bloating may be caused by a dangerous type of fluid retention that this medications can cause, which could lead to cardiac problems and I strongly urge you to contact your doctor about this matter. Are there any other questions or comments? ## Wh...

I have been taking Hydrocodone for my abdominal pain and also recently starting taking Redotex. Is it ok if I took the Hydrocodone and 1 or 2hrs later I take Redotex. I really dont know if taking those pills to combine will make me sick. ## What issue is causing your abdominal pain? Has your doctor been able to provide any diagnosis, yet? I'd really suggest not adding anything else, without their approval, in case such supplements might be aggravating, or causing your condition. Just because something is touted as being natural, and/or is available over the counter, doesn't mean that it may not cause problems, and it doesn't mean that it may not cause side effects. The FDA warns that Hydrocodone carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as naus...

Well I took them and I got a STROKE! Yes i lost weight but i almost die for it! Not Worth it try something else ## I am very sorry about what happened to you and we appreciate the warning you've posted here for others that might want to try to use Redotex for weight loss. I've posted several warnings about using it, because it contains a very dangerous combination of medications, including a stimulant, a laxative and a Benzodiazepine. For anyone that wants to lose weight, it is always safer to consult a doctor and follow a proper diet and weight loss plan. How severe was your stroke and how are you doing now?

I have chronic hives and take tachrilomus. Would it be safe to take redotex every other day in half a dose? ## Hello, Annie! How are you? No, I can't tell anyone that it is safe to take Redotex in any amount. The FDA has found serious reasons to question its safety. If you need to lose weight, it would be best and safest to talk to your doctor about what might work for you. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I have chronic hives as well (dermatographism) I take 2 Allegra a day and redotex, no side effects. I lose weight and hives under control

I took Redotex about a year ago for a few months and lost a total of 60 pds. I stopped taking them around this time last summer as I pretty much hit my goal weight. I would periodically purchase a bottle and take them here and there over the last year- to no avail- they were NOT the NF as I continued to purchase from same seller. I noticed I felt nothing with 1 pill, tried 2 - nothing - so I eventually increased to 3 in the am - other than a dry mouth I didnt have any reaction. My appetite was supressed but found that by late afternoon to evening I would be a little hungry and ate - I know that eating clean and execise while using these achieve the best results . For the past few months I have bought 2 bottles at a time and unless I take up to 4 at once the effects are minimal - And I h...

I honestly have taken it like 5 times. I get way too sick and weak. ## I am very sorry about all the side effects you've experienced. However, you should be aware that the FDA has issued an import alert regarding this product. Evaluations have shown it to contain a mix of possibly dangerous drugs, including diuretics, laxatives, thyroid hormones, depressants and antihist...

It was found to contain hormones, amphetamine like drugs, stimulants, laxatives and Diazapem (aka Valium.) Thus, it carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause some serious side eff...

Almost three weeks ago I began taking redotex with the hopes of loosing weigh along with exercise and changing my eating habits. So far lost 5 pounds (yay!) anyway I got sick last week and took Pentrexyl for a throat infection. Of course I stopped the Redotex for the past week. The last time I took Pentrexyl was four days ago. Is it safe to begin redotex again? I have sketchy feelings about having both the antibiotic still in my system and taking this crazy diet pill . Please help! How long does Pentrexyl last in the body? ## I decided to run an interaction check between each of the ingredients listed in Redotex and that of Pentrexyl. Based on my research, there aren't any drug interactions listed between the two medications. So in my honest opinion it should be safe to use them bot...

Hi im taking Redotex for a month and a week. I lost 14 pounds now but this past 2 days my stomach feels ill like an upset stomach ache. I thought it was because of something I ate, a lot of chili. But I have been feeling weak, my body hurts, and I am a bit bloated. I have dry mouth, anyone experience the same? And can I intake vitamins with Redotex since my eating is very poor now and I might have anemia? ## Hello, Jen! How are you? The FDA issued an import alert about Redotex awhile ago, because it was found to contain undeclared drug ingredients, in a possibly dangerous combination. Their lists includes a hormone, a stimulant, a respiratory/circulatory stimulant, a laxative, and benzodiazepine depressant. They have banned it in the U.S. I'm thinking that those ingredients likely e...

Has anyone taken Redotex lately and if so, what side effects have you experienced? I was taking Phentermine prescribed by the doctor, but my doctor died so I was not able to get them any longer. Started taking Phentermine from Mexico but was told Redotex was better. I am just afraid of the side effects of the medication. ## Actually, I'd suggest staying away from the Redotex, the FDA has actually issued an alert with customs to be on the lookout for them, if searching or checking anyone's luggage or vehicles, because it is one of several diet medications from Mexico that have been found to contain dangerous combinations of drugs. Their said to contain an unusual form of Pseudoephedrine, Atropine and possible several others, as well. The Phentermine is probably the safest option....

hi has anyone taken this pill and has hypothyroid? && has anyone taking synthroid taken this pill? has anyone have had success ? lmk pleae i would really appreciated ## From what I've been reading online, there are many people who find Redotex to be a useful treatment option for hypothyroidism. Apparently it contains 75mcg of triiodothyronine (the same hormone your thyroid would normally produce). However, this medications also contains a number of other questionable ingredients that have been deemed unsafe when used together and even banned in some countries; so researching safety protocols first would be a good idea so you know exactly what you're putting in your body. I hope this helps!

I am taking Redotex in the morning and orlistat twice a day, one after lunch and one after dinner, It's is my first day, I took them for a month about 4 years ago and los 45lbs, mind you, I was eating extremely healthy and was working out 3 hours a day, jog for one hour in the am and at night would do at the time turbo jam and as soon as I was done with that I'd go for another hour jog. My head would hurt every morning, it was more of a pain in the back of my lower head, but I stuck it out and if ever I felt dizzy I would eat an orange and I would feel better 15 minutes after. The combination is quite dangerous but if you are limiting your caffeine intake and are following your doctors orders you should be fine.. Consult your doctors, well if you live close by the border, becaus...

Is that true that using redotex affect your thyroid? ## Redotex contains the active ingredient Phentermine, an appetite suppressant used to aid in weight loss. I see nothing listed about any effect on the thyroid. It can cause: nausea, insomnia, irritability and elevated blood pressure. Read more: ## If you are taking redotex and have a blood test for cholesterol levels and thyroid levels, will this medication cause either of these tests to read either higher or lower than normal? ## I love redotex and have been taking them since 2006. One thing I will say is they will affect your thyroid results if your dr draws blood but will not affect your thyroid results if you're not on the pill. In sum, best diet pill I've ever taken. ## Wow i cant believe u have been on redotex that long...

I had being taking Redotex for the last ten years. It really help me to supress my appetite and keep it energized the whole day. I exercise and have good eating habits. My health is good according to the last medical exams. However, a year ago I started to loss hair and I was diagosed with alopecia areata. I'm currently in treatment and my hair is re-growing on the treated hair areas, but I'm keep losing hair from other parts of my head. My question is it is possible that redotex had somehting to do with my hair loss? ## The active ingredients in Redotex are Amphetamines and the Benzodiazepine Diazepam, and hair loss is not a normal side effect of either class of medications, but any drug can affect everyone differently. What does your doctor think has caused it? Are you still t...

Hello, I got the implanon inserted 1 year and 8 months ago and starting this year I have gain weight approximately 25 lbs. I went to a nutritionist and prescribed me redotex, just wanted to know if it interferes with birth control function or if the results of loosing weight are the same while using birth control? Just a quick question, Thanks. ## Hello, Birdy21! How are you? Redotex is not recommended, the FDA actually issued a warning about it last year. It contains a potentially dangerous combination of medications, including a benzodiazepine, which carries the risk of being habit forming. Have you considered consulting an actual doctor? There are safe and legal medications that you can try.
