Hi doctor, can i take garcinia cambogia with accutane? thanks
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO: Scientific evidence is lacking , and clinical trials were unimpressive, as to its effectiveness for short term weight loss. One garcinia cambogia product was pulled from the market because it caused liver toxicity. I suggest you save your money. There are reports of adverse side effects with the combination. I would not recommend taking Garcinia cambogia, especially if on Accutane.
