Birth Control And Diet Pills Posted: 01-24-06 14:40pm
I was thinking about trying the new diet
pill slimquick, but i'm just curious if it
would decrease the effectiveness of my
birth control pills. Any thought?
Thanks :)

That's a really good question. I've
never heard that any diet pills could
decrease the effectiveness of the pill and
now you've got me worried. Does anyone
know the answer to this question? I'd
like to know myself now.

Hi! You might check with your pharmacist
or the companies of the diet or b/c and in
the meantime use a condom until you get
some answers.
Good luck!

I've looked things up on the internet and
as far as I can tell they don't have any
effect on b/c pills, i'm just curious
about it. Don't want to take any chances
if I don't have to. Not that i'm looking
to lose a ton of weight because i'm a
healthy weight, just wanna burn some fat
off my sides lol. I exercise 4 times a
week... But I might just give it a try to
see if it really works.

These dont effect the pill I had the same
worry but when I called my gp he said they
would be fine and when I called the help
number on the slimming pills they said it
would not be a prblem at all.Hope this
helps. :p

Ive just bought some diet aid pills today
and I dont wanna start em until I know its
ok with b/c. Will it make me sick coz of
the combination!?!? Or should I just wait
until I go off the pill to loose some
weight?... Xxxx

Call your gynecologist and ask, but they
shouldn't interfere in any way.
