many people consume diet pills because they do not have much time for exercise and some of the diet pills is more convenient and effective than exercise to lose weight. but there is lots of side effects come with the pills, it is suggested to check on the ingredients if anyone intend to use these pills to lose weight. Some of them are really good as they can be used as a supplements for our body. it is better to consult with doctor or specialist before consider of buying diet pills. my friend told me that diet pills is really effective but once he stop consuming the pills, his weight starting to lose control.

hello aevans. thanks for the response. i agree that diet pills are consume nowadays because they lack time for exercise. i mean, many people have their sedentary lifestyle. it's true that most of the pills has side effects. it will be effective but it will harm you as well. we should not forget to consult a doctor because they know what's good in our body.

I think, without having done any research on it, that some may be okay, but that there are a lot who aren't okay as well. So it depends on what pills it is that you want to take, really. Always read about the ingredients etc. before taking anything like this, you need to know exactly what is in them!

Personally I don't think any of those types of medications are safe because we never really know whats in them or how they will react. Everyone's body is different and reacts differently so one pill could possible kill someone.

hello krizz. thanks for the response. it's true that the effectivity of the medication depends on the body. some will be effective but others will have allergic reactions if not treated, it could possibly kill someone. i learned that all medications are not safe since it will damage to your liver once you are taking it daily.
