Product Features

Mazindol is a drug that stimulates the central nervous system and thereby increases heart rate and blood pressure and decreases the appetite. It must be prescribed by a doctor, and you should take it only as directed by said doctor. Traditionally, it is taken one to three times a day before meals with a glass of water, though it can be taken with food if it upsets your stomach.

You should not take this medication if you have high blood pressure, have any hardening of the arteries, or glaucoma. If you have taken any sort of MAOI inhibitor during the last 14 days, you should not take Mazindol. If you have a problem or history with alcohol abuse, you should also stay away from this medication. Before beginning this medication, be sure to tell your doctor if you have problems with your thyroid, any anxiety issues, diabetes, or any sort of seizure disorder.

If you have any of the conditions listed above, you may not be able to take Mazindol or may require a lower dosage and monitoring. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but do not take too late in the day or you may not be able to sleep. Do not double doses of this medication. If you are pregnant, nursing, or may become pregnant, you should not take this medication as it is unknown whether or not it will harm your unborn child or pass through breast milk.

Use caution when driving or operating heavy machinery and alert your doctor immediately if you experience a severe headache, an irregular heartbeat, confusion and erratic behavior.

Advantages

  • May help with weight loss in those who are obese.

Disadvantages

  • Should not be used long term.
  • Should not be used without a prescription from a doctor.
  • Is not available in the United States.
  • Ingredients list cannot be found.

Conclusion

If you speak to a doctor and he believes this may be a good option for you, then by all means go ahead with it. The simple fact that it has yet to be used in the United States and no information is available on the ingredients is enough to turn most people away. When you consider this along with the side effects, it is more important and safer to take something that is proven to be safe, and combine it with a healthy, balanced diet, and exercise.

**Our Top Weight Loss Choice**

Top Choice for 2009: Avesil

Avesil is clearly the most promising weight control formula we know of on the market. After looking at hundreds of different purported weight loss supplements, Avesil was the most rigorously researched one that we could find. The foundation behind the Avesil formula was an original scientific research study that incorporated an incredible 284 previously published peer-reviewed clinical studies, many conducted in university research labs. All of the product claims made about Avesil are substantiated by this large volume of research.

Unlike many fad weight loss ingredients (hoodia, acai berry, etc.) which are at best supported by folklore and at worst by pop culture, Avesil is totally rooted in disciplined scientific study. In fact, two research trials conducted on human subjects, later published in highly respected scientific journals, concluded that the primary ingredients in Avesil resulted in an average weight loss of more than 3 times that of a healthy diet and exercise alone.

Customers will notice that the claims made about Avesil are quite reasonable and not the least far-fetched. Simply put, Avesil is a safe, healthy way to promote a significant increase in weight loss when taken in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise. In today's market there is a shamefully high number of consumers who have been deceived by outrageous "no work" promises, manufactured customer testimonials and bogus before/after pictures used by so many marketers of weight loss supplements. Avesil promises to deliver healthy, reasonable, and significant weight loss benefits - all offered through the process of a risk-free trial, leaving customers with very little to lose (other than weight).
