hi everyone i hope this is the right area to post this but i was looking for some advice and to see if anyone else had experienced this.
i have been taking orlistat for my weight (currently 13 stone 9 i was 15 stone .6 ) i have been on this medication for 6 months now and am really happy with the results.
how ever i have a full blood test done before i stated this mediation all came back fine and good now each month whilst on the orlistat i have regular blood tests done by my GP she said it what she does when prescribing this mediation and i have to be weighed before i get my next prescription.
on my first blood test after taking the mediation my liver enzymes started to go up a bit they went from 20 to 60 in the first month second month from 60 to 120 and continued to go up my last blood test showed they are now at 435 my doctor has stopped the medication straight away and said it can effect people liver enzymes and mine were getting very high i was advised to stop the medication straight away sine then the tests have come back slightly lower but still high compared to the level it was before i started on the medication.
has anyone else had this happen to them before while taking the orlistat?
