Hi, Just started tablets, I am very reluctant due to there side effects. I am also on a calorie controlled diet. I wish everyone well and welcome any tips.

Hi there, I too have just started taking the tablets today, and also am slightly worried about the side effects, but I suppose if you are careful the benefits will hopefully be worth it Good luck anyway

Hi Bigbird
I started Acomplia on saturday which is 3 tablets ago haha, i read horror stories about side affects and was worried sick, but so far i have not had any, my motion is slightly softer than normal but certainly nothing to moan about, although i am weighing daily (oops) and not dropped a pound yet, wishfull thinking for it to happen so fast i know. How are you doing with it? whats you start weight and aim? if your not happy saying how much do you want to lose i need to lose 5 stone to be anywhere near my "ideal" weight. Look forward to your reply x x

Hi I've just started my second pack of acomplia today. Feel ok noticable side effects to me include tiredness, some forgetfulness. Intially the hiccups!!! I only weigh myself when I go the Dr's to be monitored so after the first 2 weeks i had lost 8lbs. I have found that they do surpress my appetite and I really cannot stand the smell or thought of things like fish and chips.
One other thing in the UK my pharmacist told me about the support that the makers of Acomlia offer. They run a supporthelpline/website not sure if anyone else has been told. You complete a registration form with the pharmacist who then sends it away you get regular phone calls at times to suit you, advice and support line open 8 till 8 everyday and they send you things in the post to help you ie a perdometer, tape measure etc You can log onto the website at anytime for guidance and you can set your self targets.

Hi there,
I am on day 3 of my first lot of accomplia, so far it hasn't supressed my appetite at all, does it take a while to get into your system to work?? I am also so very very tired, so thinking this is a side effect. I am dissappointed that I am still as hungry as ever.
