Question:
I have been taking avandia and glyburide and since started taking them (about a year ago), I have gained allot of weight. A friend of mine told me that she had recently read an article that there was some new pills that you could take. She said that they only worked for weight loss diet pill that was caused as a result of taking medication. She does not remember the name of the pills or where she read the article. I was wondering if anyone else had heard or tried anything like rapid weight loss diet pill ? Other than traditional dieting and exercise, are there other things that one can do to counteract the weight gain from medication. Thanks in advance

Answer:
Especially since the friend of mine couldn't remember more. Even if there's a new medication out there to help with some of the diabetes drugs side effects, it might also have nasty side effects, and there are so many weight loss miracle cures we couldn't begin to guess which one your friend might be referring to. Are you sure the weight gain isn't natural to your insulin actually functioning and being able to metabolize all the food you eat? How much weight gain are you talking about here? And have you talked with your doctor, whose business it is to know the medications you take and their effects on your health, good and bad?
