Advantages
- Xenadrine EFX is now available in an Ephedra-free form.
- Xenadrine EFX comes in an easy-to-take capsule form.
- Xenadrine EFX can be easily and conveniently purchased online.
Disadvantages
- The official website for Xenadrine EFX (Cytodyne) is not up and running.
- Xenadrine EFX appears to documented real clinical proof regarding its effectiveness.
- Xenadrine EFX does not appear to be offered with a 100% money-back/satisfaction guarantee.
- Xenadrine EFX is clearly not suited for all individuals, due to the number of serious health warnings.
- There is no free trial sample of Xenadrine EFX offered.
- There do not appear to be any customer testimonials available.
- May cause stomach irritation. (See reader comments.)
Conclusion
Like many other diet supplements currently gracing the market, Xenadrine EFX makes a lot of promises. Unfortunately it may be difficult for some dieters to decide on this particular supplement because of the lack of clinical research offered online. Furthermore, Xenadrine EFX would likely get more attention if the official company website was functional, offered some customer testimonials, free trial samples or a 100% money-back/satisfaction guarantee. Since Xenadrine EFX does come with some warnings, it’s wise to consult a doctor before taking this diet drug.
I don’t feel any speeding effect or increase heart rate. Which is good, woke up this morning with a rash though not sure if I want to keep taking it .it has only been about two weeks
[Reply]
i started taking these. i started to feel really funny and my heart rate sky rocketed. i need to lose alot of weight but i am not convinced these are safe.
[Reply]
when was this published??
[Reply]
I’ve been taking this product for one month & it really works! I weighed 153 prior to this product and now am @ 143. I’m 5’6″ and am mostly muscle but just wanted to take off “that last 10 lbs” that diet and exercise can’t seem to get rid of, so this was effective in that regard. I also got the bonus of an energy boost. Bad side effect: I developed a mild rash on my right arm that itched the first few days, but my body got used to the product and quit doing this.
(This is a forum for those who take this product and wish to know the effectiveness or lack thereof NOT for people to put OBVIOUS answers on how to lose weight!!!! Ex:”A good way to lose weight is to just diet and exercise NOT take pills”. If we wanted to know that information we would have looked THAT up but we didn’t so put those kinds of comments where they are relevant. I say this b/c I had to sift through a lot of BS to read what I actually logged on to find!)

I used xenadrine one week every month for 3.5 months, within that time I went from 235lbs to 165lbs. I did 15 min workouts 3 times a week, but i feel like xenadrine did a good portion of the work for me and fast.
Don’t abuse it though, it can get pretty trippy if you do!
I’m currently at 148lbs 9.2% bodyfat, held this weight for 6 months so far so obviously no rebound.
[Reply]
took this stuff for 4 days and it felt like I was gonna have a heart attack it’s junk that could kill you
[Reply]
Dangerous stuff, be careful, will change mood, give excessive energy, raise heart rate to dangerous levels, feel like taking this for a while could cause a heart attack try CLA or Green Coffee Bean as it doesnt have these side effects.
[Reply]
Where you get the old Xendrian from cause i dnt want to waste my money on the new no good feed back
[Reply]
I absolutely LOVED Xenadrine. It seriously worked for me. I used it on & off for a couple years. I always kept the weight off. However, the physical toll it took on my health was irreparable. I started having seizures. It induced a seizure disorder in me that I have for the rest of my life now. Once I stopped taking it, the seizures completely stopped. However, I have to be on meds now to make sure they don’t come back. It’s SO disappointing. I loved Xenadrine, but it’s just not worth putting my body through hell. What’s even worse is now that I’m not taking it, my body doesn’t know how to work without it, so I’m working out & eating right..the same as I did when I was on it, & I’m actually gaining weight, & can’t keep it off. My body became dependent on Xenadrine, & now it’s impossible for me to lose weight.

Will Xenadrine Ultra make you test positive on a drug test?
[Reply]
will this make me test positive on a drug screen
[Reply]
I started taking these pills on Monday April 18. I have lost 3 pounds. It curved my appetite but it keeps me awake all night.
[Reply]
I started taking these pills 2 weeks ago (off and on..so not every day), and it went from bad to worse…it started with the basic shakes or jittery episodes right after taking these pills, slight headaches….last week it progressed to chest pain and rapid heart beats, which would tend to wear off after a few hours of having taking these, but yesterday I only took 1 pill and I ended up in the emergency room I had the symptoms of a heart attack, left arm numb, shortness of breath, chest pain….I am also 35 yr old female that works out 2-3X a week and was taking these pills to lose about 35lbs….I didn’t lose anything and more then anything I was so freaked out by this experience that I will never take a diet pill again. Be CAREFUL when taking these pills…
[Reply]
If you are looking for a healthy alternative to weight loss, try changing your diet. I would say that 95% of the supplements that come in pill / powder form are going to have a negative impact on your organs if used in long term measures. Just 30 minutes of cardiovascular exercises -DAILY- combined with different work out techniques will prove to have significantly more results than these workout supplements. Hopefully my 2 cents saves some individuals not only money, but health problems as well. Diet, 30 minutes of cardio daily, exercise (not to be confused with ADL’s)
[Reply]
I just started yesterday. I pray it works.
[Reply]
just got xenadrine ultra two days ago.big dissappointment.still waiting for the big boost.i did better when i was on a fast.liars
[Reply]

[Reply]
I love the product! It gives me alot of energy and curbs my hunger. I have to remind myself to eat!!
[Reply]

[Reply]
can i take xenadrine while on a low carb diet such as atkins i am on my first two weeks { induction }
[Reply]
Yes.
I took this product 6 years ago when it first came out along with a low carb diet. With a daily 30m-1 hr work, I lost 40lbs in 3 months and kept it off.
[Reply]
how long can i used xenadrine?3 years ?5 years? will it be safe?or still effective?
[Reply]
I MISS EPHEDRA
[Reply]
hey this really worked for u .. did u eat diffwhen taking the pill or the same cuz i need to loose 30
[Reply]
Ya, it’s called meth.
[Reply]
AFTER SO LONG OF TAKING XENADRINE WILL IT BE BAD IF I STILL DRINK IT AFTER I LOST THE WEIGHT I LOST OR IS IT JUST A WASTE
[Reply]
i am the same way cept from 150 to 180 but im like 5’10 but i have fat all over me and it sucks and i just need that boost to get me started!
[Reply]
if you are drinking xenedrine does it give you diarrhea and how does it affect you if you have had your gallbladder removed
[Reply]
That’s pretty closed-minded and judgmental of you. I think everyone here knows that just popping a pill won’t make you loose weight, but if people want an additional boost to help them meet their goals, I don’t think that it is your place to judge them.
[Reply]
to those of you who want a quick fix, walking five x a week will help tremendously, esp. if your body is not used to exercising (you will be surprised with the weight loss)–
[Reply]
Im just starting to use xenadrine and this product gives me some real headache, But still drink them hope the juice worth the squeeze.
[Reply]
They are only saying that you will lose up to 11 lbs in 45 days so that would mean it worked for you.
[Reply]
sadly no, Im afraid that with any pill you will still have to work out to see results. If your not big on exercise try just changing your eating habits. although it wont give you muscles, it should cause a change in your weight.
[Reply]
just started taking the pill obviously had a boost of energy but was wondering if it causes heart defects like other weight loss pills?
[Reply]
This product made my weight stable. no gain, no loss. I got extreme energy for a month and now no affects. Lately ive been nauseated maybe from this.
[Reply]
are you guys serious? what an awful thing to say about addicts. addiction is a disease! people can’t control it unless they get help… also, if you want a stronger diet pill, go to your doctor- ask for phenteramine.
[Reply]
I agree, if people want a stronger diet pill ask your doctor about adipex(phentermine)I have been on it for 2 months and have lost 20 pounds
[Reply]
try counting calories and fats
[Reply]
I agree with you. Eat right and do some excercise and you will lose the weight. No pill in the bottle is good for you.
[Reply]
I notice xenadrine rfa-1 can’t be taken for people with depression and anxiety is that’s the same for xenadrine ultra
[Reply]
i want to try it but im kinda rethinking it because of the negative comments…so need help with a decision i guess
[Reply]
I have lost weight with the old product, the new one makes me super anxious and nauseated. I had to stop
[Reply]
I believe it is not recommended for people with heart conditions. You may want to ask your doc before trying it
[Reply]
The old version was certainly better! however, I did lose about 6lbs in the first 2 wks. It filled me up, I’d eat half a salad & be stuffed. Seems to be working less, the longer I take it though. Good for a start.
[Reply]
Have taken both the original and newer versions lost significant weight with older version- nothing with the new
[Reply]
I took the older version I guess with Ephedra..it worked great on the energy and the weigh loss was superb…not sure I will try this new one..does not look to appealing..
[Reply]
ONLY THE ORIGINAL FORMULA WORKED! NONE OF THE NEW PRODUCTS FROM THIS COMPANY WORKS! I HAVE TRIED THEM ALL & THEY SUCK! THEY SHOULD BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL! YOU ARE ALLOWED TO BUY EPHEDRA AGAIN (DR. SO WISHIE WASHIE ON ITS REAL EFFECTS) & ALLOW US TO MAKE OUR OWN DECISIONS ON WHAT WE TAKE & HOW MUCH WE TAKE OF IT! IT WAS ONLY THE PEOPLE THAT ABUSED THIS DRUG THAT WERE HURT BY IT! IF YOU TAKE IT AS IT STATES ON THE BOTTLE YOU WILL LOOKSE TONS OF WEIGHT & YOU WILL HAVE AMAZING ENERGY LEVELS- IF YOU ABUSE IT (LIKE EVERY DRUG IN THE WORLD) YOU WILL HAVE HEALTH PROBLEMS! BIG SURPRISE! ITS ABOUT TIME THE FDA STOPS TREATING US ALL LIKE IDIOTS THAT THEY MUST HOLD THE HANDS OF!
BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL FORMULA! EVERYTHING ELSE ON THE MARKET FROM THIS COMPANY & ALL OTHERS SUCK! WASTE OF TIME, EFFORT & MONEY!
[Reply]
Right I tryed it when it first came out years ago and lost a ton of weight. Maybe it was the ephedra. Anyways Im still here. It didnt kill me.lol
[Reply]
Never tried it.. I’m a coffee lover from espresso to cappio, machiotto to turkish; BUT I said I need to lose 50 pounds by March… XENEDRINE is the best pick for that compared to HYDROXYCUT. They all work less efficiently with the cancellation of ephedra.
we need the original back, my hair and nails were long and stronger, my energy was boosted, but safely. I am a sufferer of migraines and am very sensitive to medications, however, I never felt better on the original and never had migraines. Please bring it back. It helped me w/ problems.
[Reply]
The worst product I have ever used. I gained 5lbs. on the first week. The stomach problems were terrible. No boost of energy.
[Reply]
I am very disappointed in the “new version” of Xenadrine….Where is the energy burst, I think this is just a lot of useless hype
[Reply]
I agree hate the new kind because of this, I will no longer use it. I’m so disappointed it was working great for me. New one came out it was like W.T.F happened to a good product. They need to go back to original and then leave it alone
[Reply]
Is there satisfying results from anyone?
[Reply]
Will Xenadrine Ultra make you test positive on a drug test?
[Reply]
will this really work?
[Reply]
Well, instead of asking questions, I’m going to be a guinea pig and take Xenadrine Ultra given to me by a co-worker. There’s a bulge right where my belly button is and it seems to getting in the way of my PR while I run. Lack of proper training over the summer probably. I’ll give updates if I can over the next 45 days.
[Reply]
2 weeks, 5 lbs. Have to refrain. Need my sleep at night. Will resume after the marathon. Effective, but one needs his rest.
[Reply]
Used along with a good diet and lots of exercise, I lost 42 lbs in 6months. Feels great! Yes it works for me but I would image everyone is different. Good luck!
