Hi Fivefires,
I think that the sticker price on Alli is pretty expensive. If you have good Rx coverage and want to try this med, get an Rx, that way it won't come out of your pocket (as much)Any psychmed (or med in general) is only effective if the patient will eat it. You have every right to inform your pdoc about which side effects are unacceptable.
My pdoc heard me loud and clear when I told him that I had gained so much weight on qetiapine (or however seroquel is spelled). a perfect storm. holidays and seroquel (300mg, btw). I swear, I ate 6 pieces of pie after humonguous thanksgiving dinner.
sigh...
metformin may have fewer side effects than Alli? not sure if you have typeIIdiabetes symptoms.
hugs,
Ll
