So, what is Didrex anyway?

Didrex is a weight loss drug (diet pill) that many people get prescriptions for. It's also called Benzphetamine, but noone uses that long name.. it's simply referred to as Didrex by most people.

Just like almost every other weight loss pill, Didrex belongs to a class of drugs dubbed anoretics. So Diadrex is a miracle drug that will miraculously help me lose 50+ lbs in one month, right? Unfortunately it doesn't work that way. If you are prescribed it, you must also exercise and have a well-balance diet in order to lose weight permanently, and efficiently.

Didrex (like Hoodia, and Phentermine) work by suppressing your appetite.. In other words, you won't feel the need to eat as much as you wanted to originally. It does this by stimulating your nervous system, which brings along a whole host of side effects, which we will get to.

Do I recommend Didrex?

Because of how ineffective it is, and the huge number of side effects, I simply can't recommend this diet supplement to people. If you want a good natural diet supplement, you should definitely look at Hoodia Gordonii. I went from 200 lbs to 135 with Hoodia Gordonii, and it did so with Absolutely No Side Effects.

What are some things to consider before asking my doc for Didrex?

1. You need to tell your doctor any and all health conditions. In particular, if you have certain health problems such as being prone to anxiety attacks, or have abused drugs in the past, you may not be prescribed Didrex. Now, don't lie.. because this is for your own good. Your doctor is there to help you make wise decisions, and if you have these health problems, they may cause further damage than good.

2. You need to ask your doctors what the potential side effects are. The most common ones are:

- Frequent feelings of being nervous

- Irregular heartbeat. This is one a lot of people have. When I was prescribed Didrex, at times I felt like I was running a marathon even though I was just sitting at my desk.

- A dry mouth. A minor side effect, but one that is very annoying.

- Frequent headaches and migraines. Most people complain about these, and it truly is annoying. Don't take any other drugs for those migraines, always contact your doctor first!

- Inability to sleep well at night

- Infrequent bowel movements and constipation. You may need to consume more fiber if prescribed Didrex.

3. Tell your doctor if you are taking any other medications and supplements. Some of them may cause complications if also consumed with Didrex, in particular the following:

- Elavil
- Asendin
- Sinequan
- Pamelor
- Tofranil

4. Follow the directions carefully. The last time I checked, you need to take Didrex a half hour or so prior to eating a meal. You also shouldn't be taking Didrex anywhere near 3-5 hours before you sleep.

Here are some reviews my visitors have sent me regardind Didrix:

"I have been obese for over 10 years, and was sick and tired of trying countless diet pills. I think I've tried them.. Hoodia, Trimspa, Hydroxycut Hardcore, you name it. I probably spent way over $5000 in diet pills, and I was sick and tired of it! So I went to my doctor to see if he could prescribe me Phentermine. Unfortunately he said I wasn't ready for it, whatever that means.. He gave me Didrex instead, and told me to take it one everyday.

Well, I've been taking Didrex for over 2 months and I haven't lost a single lb, and I am infuriated, to be honest. I don't want to waste anymore money on any more diet pills. I feel so ugly right now and will try almost anything to lose this body fat.. I am constantly teased and picked on by everyone. If you have any suggestions on what I should try next, please tell me because I think I am down to my last straws"

- Beatrice Kamens

"So I tried Didrex to lose weight more than 3 years ago. It was the worst experiences I've ever felt. I know you're not supposed to take Didrix if you ever had a history of drug abuse. Well, I never had any problems with drugs - I'm completely clean, yet I found myself addictive to this drug. I couldn't get off it, and when I attempted to, I just had withdrawel symptoms. I want to warn you of this danger, and seriously consider trying another drug for weight loss.. one that is not addictive. This drug is just killing me right now."

- Mark Anderson

"I was prescribed Didrex last year, and it was the worst day of my life. Now I did manage to lose 5 lbs in the first 3 weeks which was encouraging. However, I just felt terrible. My energy levels were extremely low, and I was constantly feeling depressed, sad, and low. I'm normally a happy, upbeat person, but this weight loss drug totally changed my personality.

Then it happened. I went for a drug test for my job, and what did you know? They told me I tested positive for this dangerous substance. I couldn't tell them I was taking Didrex because I didn't want to be embarasseed. I eventually got fired from job. "

- Johnny Oates

 

To effectively lose weight, you must find a way to reduce your appetite. One product that does this is Hoodia Gordonii Plus, which can suppress your appetite, boost your metabolism, burn fat, as well as give you most energy. I personally tried Hoodia Gordonii a few years ago, and it helped me lose 15 lbs a month, and go down from 210 to under 150 lbs in a year.
