The side effects of Panbesy/Duromine !

Today is my 10th day on panbesy & duromine. 3 days on a low dosage of panbesy 15mg & the rest on 30mg of duromine. Very Happy to report the flabby arms were a thing of the past!
Panbesy & Duromine is effective. I've lost 3 & half kg so far !!!! Happiness.......

As for side effects, is there such a thing as overly energized? Well I am feeling that ...lol..., not that I mind though. It only makes me better at my job, I even picked up a couple of mistakes here & there which impresses my boss!!!! (I think) . Sleeping is a problem for the first night, now is back to my usual- so no more complains there.


Dry mouth syndrome ? Ya I have that, I just drink more water- so no problem, I was thinking that'll help hydrates my skin...lol...

I'm enjoying the fact that I've stop craving for food, even snacks - that's the best side effect! I've been cursed with a sweet tooth, & that has always been a problem...... now solved! Wonder will it last after I get off Panbesy/ Duromine?

    1. This kind of thing very subjective. Like e.g. insomnia could be bad for some, but for me, really no problem as I work very late anyways :)

    2. If you want to be slim & beautiful must suffer a bit lor. I had some pretty bad side effects but I ended up losing 8kg- so it's super worth it for me !!!!!!

    1. It's all about the will power. It's difficult for those with a sweet tooth.

    2. Or a huge appetite, like me :))

    3. It's also tough when you just started dating ...lol... What else you do when you date? You eat right? LOL

    4. O....I can think of lots of other "things" to do besides eating... wink...wink.... LOL

    5. It's very true. My bf complained that since we dated he has put on 10kg ! We have to sacrifice for love I guess, hahahha.....

  7. I am quite excited about taking this.
    Have been plagued by obesity for most of my adult life. Finally decide to do something about it. Lovely to see all these comments :))

    1. Hi Adeline ,welcome to my blog.
      Hope you've lost the weight, any updates?

      Delete
    2. Thanks Sage !
      Update: I started taking panbesy during the end of last year. After a month I lost 4kg (with no extra exercises). After the second month, I lost a further 3.6kg (again with no exercise). After 2 months I stopped, went for a KFC meal to reward myself for losing so much weight haha...

      I have since changed my eating habits (no more KFC...lol..) . I have not been taking snacks or soft drinks for months.I have joined a yoga class (5 months already)! My weight went down further without the pills- great isnt?
      Thnx Sage for your blog & encouragement. It has done wonders for me. I look like a different person now.

  8. Hey, I have been taking it for like about 2-3 weeks already but my weight seemed to remain stagnant now... only managed to drop 2kg+ within 2 weeks then it seems to stop dropping any lower...

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Maybe it'll start dropping again on the 4th week. The body could be adjusting, I think. You can't expect the weight to keep dropping non-stop right? Have a bit of patience. And remember you also need to, eat lesser than usual plus some exercises if possible.

      Delete
    2. What exercises do you recommend? Cause the doctor told me that the exercises i do (running, tennis) helps me to build muscle and make me look quite muscular.. but he say within 1 month can slim 4 kg also hahaha!! Ok lah, at most go back prove him wrong :P But did you encounter any situation where you weight was not been dropping, but drop after awhile?

      Delete
    3. I'm no expert, but I think the best way is NOT to expect a 'constant' decrease in weight,as logically that would be impossible. And when you add your kind of intense activities in the mix, it's more difficult. Also I didn't follow my weight so closely like you. What I did was, I weigh myself once after 2 weeks & another time after a month. I saw a general decrease in weight overall & I was happy:) That works for me. If you keep weighing yourself, there's sure to be a time when the weight "seems" to stand still.
      For me,walking to & fro from the mrt (about 10mins on heels each way)& some housework is enough exercises for me:))

  9. My pills for the first month is about to finish soon.. left 20 pills. Based on your opinion, should I go a week before my pills end or should I go after CNY, but I won't have pills for 3 days before going to see the doctor? Or just random skip 3 days of pills for the delay? LOL.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I think both ways is fine. One friend of mine took the pills at alternate days "throughout 2 months", & she still end up losing weight. Just remember not to over indulge during the CNY.

  10. Hi guys, I have went to dr ong and went twice already.. now on my 2 months of pills with the "poop" pills. Initially, I lost 4kg before going back (second visit) and now I only managed to lose 2kg within a month or more.. he did recommend me to save up for the vit d jab the next time i come back but that's provided if i still don't lose weight or something. I'm just afraid my body gotten used to the pills and the jab is quite expensive ah... :l

    What should I do?

    ReplyDelete

    1. I suggest you just stay on a very strict no nonsense diet & save the money.
      -no sweet drinks
      -no fried stuff
      -very little rice & bread
      -no fruits & spicy stuff
      -no snacks
      -no supper
      - light exercises & lots of veg
      If you can do the above, you sure to lose more weight. The Vit D jab is for people like me ..lol... my body has so little Vit D, so my metabolism is super low. I did a blood test to confirm that! So I did the VitD jab to help. Normal people like you, dont need to lah:))

    2. Hi biyu
      I think I'm not normal leh. My metabolism must be low too. I already eat quite little yet still fat ....urgh.... Should I take the Vitamin D jab to help?

      Delete
    3. It'll certainly help:))

  11. Thanks for all your sharing.. I just went to consult Dr keith Ong 4 days ago and started taking the Panbesy 15mg. Tomorrow onwards I will start taking Duromine 30mg. I was also told to take the GarbaSlim pills which is a fat burner. Hope to see results.

  15. Anyone tried the vit d jab??? Quick results??

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Tried everything & nothing works. Did this & it works. If you are normal like most people, just the normal panbesy,duromine & garbaslim will do.

      But if you happen to have very low metabolism rate (that's how I got so fat in the first place)then Vit D jab would turn the situation around for you.

      Frankly I don't eat much. But just cant get the weight off because of my low metabolism rate. The Vit D jab fix that.

    2. Hi Kelly , I did lose weight. But what surprises me more is, my skin seems to improve. Even my nails seems softer, I'm serious! weird right?

      Delete
    3. How does this vit d jab works? I went to see dr ong but he told me i do not need that as it will increase my weight instead. But looking at blogs review,many says it works. Why so..? P.s: I am at least a size m.

      Delete
    4. From my research: Vit D helps to boost our own metabolism. Those people who find it hard to lose weight, usually have very low Vit D in their bodies (like me). Therefore this Vit D jab will enhance the whole weight loss program. I've done 2 of these jabs. People look at me now & ask me what happen to me ...lol... I look different. Finally something works for me!

      Maybe you have misunderstood what he said? Size M seems fine. Maybe you can just take their Garbaslim? I like that, it helps with my constipation.

      Delete
    5. Hi Adena! I have no idea but when I asked him about this he told me this is not suitable for me as it will let me gain weight instead as this jab is to increase my "bones" or something. I read all sort comments and reviews that you ladies mentioned about how good this V jab was and also thought of trying, but that's what he told me...:( anyone also gotten this advice from him?

      Delete
    6. Haha... wbw, difficult to tell leh. Maybe it's only in your case. I took the blood test, my Vit D level is low. That explains why all my previous efforts in losing weight fail. So I did the Vit D jab, took panbesy & garbaslim. I went from Size L to Size M within a month! That's wonderful for me.

      But you are only a Size M, that should be fine right? Maybe like Adena above said, just try their Garbaslim to shape & tone up a little more. Too skinny is not that nice either.
