A member asked:

What weight loss pills can minors buy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

NONE ARE SAFE: All diet pills wether designed for adults for minors are extremely risky.Not only can they dysregulate your metabolic system and your stress response system, thereby increasing the risk for developing depression & anxiety, they can interfere with absorption of nutrients and set up an individual for developing a serious eating disorder, which then has a damaging & dangerous course of its own!
