Has anyone tried one of the different Generic Acomplias on the market? They are very reasonably priced and some are made by reputable Pharmaceutical Company's. Whats your feeling on these generics? Bill Chicago area
I have been taking India's generic called monaslim. I think it's working the same as the acomplia I started with. I paid 130.00 the first time and 35.00 from a different site. They both are identical.
I read where the generic is sold in India for as little as $12 a month in the pharmacies there. Has anyone found it cheaper than $35 a month mail order USA? I am also seeing the mail order sites requiring a prescription to order the Acomplia or the generic. How are you getting around this or you able to get a US doctors prescription? I have a very good friend who is a doctor and says it is illegal for her to write a prescription for a drug that is unapproved by the FDA.
Just type in the correct brand name on Google and there are a number of sites. I bought some when my regular Accomplia supplier's shipment went astray. Seems to be the same to me but i have never had any side effects, I checked out the manufacturer pretty thoroughly and they seem to have a good rep. Price difference is remarkable
Received the two strip order today. Marked Health Products. Routed through Hong Kong. Will start on it tomorrow and keep you all posted. Here's hoping.
I am in my 2nd week of titrating down from 10 mg Lexapro daily (last 6 months or so). It was prescribed to me by a neurologist for anxiety disorder and not depression. However my family doctor wants me off the Lexapro before starting the Slimona. And, I don't really have any more environmentally induced anxiety. Sooo, I'll start the Slimona in a week or two. Meanwhile, my wife started on it last Friday and it seems to be having a very significant effect on both her appetite and her feeling of fullness. She's eating a LOT less. She doesn't seem to see it, but I certainly do.The scales will tell the tale, though. I'll keep you posted on her progress. By the way, she's 60 yrs old, 5 ft. 4 inches and over 250 lbs (she won't tell me exactly how much.)
I have been on Rimonabant for 7 weeks and have lost 22#. I am trying to cut back on my eating and the drug makes it easy.The only side affects both myself and my wife have had were some loose stools when we started on the drug. I switched from Acomplia to a generic 2 weeks ago with no noticeable difference. $135 a month Acomplia versus $35 a month generic - I'll stay with the generic. Bill
Wife had to stop taking it when she had an unrelated cardiac incident. However, I started it a month ago. First two weeks, very subtle, but noticable. Then I ran out and had to wait a week for re-supply. Now been back on for a week. Suddenly, 2 days ago, WHAM! Killed my apetite almost completely. Still effective. Don't know how long this will last, but it's very impressive. I weigh around 280, down from 335 over the last 1.5 yrs. Largely due to Lexapro. But, what a pain that stuff is. I don't recommend it. I'll keep you posted.
I have been on Acomplia for 5 weeks, then a generic Acomplia for 7 more. Total loss - 33#. I don't see any difference in the two. Lately my weight loss has slowed but I still continue to lose some each week with not much effort. bong
I have been taking slimona from India for two weeks now. I am losing a pound a week. Now that may not sound dramatic but for someone who didn't lose anything eating under 1,000 cals a day for 3 mths while also walking 2 miles every day it's wonderful. I couldn't possibly afford to take "the real thing" so I'm trying this.
Hi. I just started the Indian generic a few days ago (I actually live in India, so getting it was easy, the only easy thing about living her, haha) Anyway, I am NOT having any decrease in my appetite at all. Does anyone know if it takes a few days (or weeks) to "kick in"? I know some meds do. I hope it will start helping soon, because I REALLY need some help!
I purchased the Monoslim and did not feel any difference; the package was shipped generic foil and no directs? Can someone tell me when best to take the monoslim and any other information they would like to share. I have 20lbs. to lose and like Elizabeth 1,200 cals and exercising and not lost any weight. Please advise.
