Yes, but: It's a total waste of your money. The only thing that will lose weight is your wallet. There may also be interactions with the pills and your rx since we don't know that's in the pills. Don't get your medical information from friends, tv or the internet. The only way to lose weight and keep it off is to eat less and exercise more.
