This is a very useful medicine for weight loss, as it has an accelerating action on the slimming process. However, it is very important to follow the instructions, which indicate that it should not be taken, for example, if you do not eat any fats at mealtimes, as it only acts on the absorption of fats. It is also not recommended to take it with large meals, as this would accentuate the action of possible side effects.
