No medicine will produce long lasting effects on weight by itself. Lifestyle and behavioral changes will be needed in order to keep a negative calorie balance by diet and exercise. A weight loss center will be best in this regard.

NO MEDICINES ARE 100% SAFE. The safest way to control your weight is to find out why you are eating more calories than you burn. This can be easily done using the app Cronometer. Enter all you eat & drink & do for a few days & it should become clear where the excess calories (fat on you) are coming from. Stop them & your weight will go down. Simple in concept. Difficult in execution.
