How much damage have i done to my health from taking diet pills for over a decade long ago?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: There are many types of diet pills. Many pills work by reducing one's appetite. You should have a complete physical examination to make sure that your body can withstand the type of diet pill you plan on taking. Some diet pills can be harmful if you have an undiagnosed heart condition or other medical problems.
