One of the nasty side effects of this medication was that the only reason the person lost weight was because they had chronic diarrhea and were not absorbing the fat content of their diet. Basically we were inducing a type of mal-absorption syndrome in the patient, who would definitely lose weight but feel dreadful at the same time.
A better option I think is to use a fat burning medication. You can even find a fat burner review that can help compare some of the available options. This drug would increase the metabolic rate – increasing the rate at which the body breaks down nutrients. It should in the normal course of events not lead to diarrhea and feeling dreadful, but may give rise to a feeling of euphoria.
