FDA NOTE: HCG Diet IS NOT FDA APPROVED FOR THE TREATMENT OF OBESITY OR FOR WEIGHT LOSS. ACCORDING TO THE FDA, “THERE IS NO SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE THAT HCG Diet INCREASES WEIGHT LOSS BEYOND THAT RESULTING FROM THE CALORIE RESTRICTION.” HCG Diet HAS ONLY BEEN FDA APPROVED FOR PREPUBERTAL CRYPTORCHIDISM (UNDESCENDED TESTICLES), HYPOGONADOTROPIC HYPOGONADISM IN MALES (DECREASED FUNCTION OF THE TESTES DUE TO A PITUITARY DEFICIENCY), AND OVULATION INDUCTION (FERTILITY TREATMENT).

Life’s Interference: We do realize that circumstances occur in each patient’s life that may interfere with their weight loss during some months. If it becomes necessary for you to stop the program for personal reasons, do not be discouraged. Just try to maintain your weight and simply come back and rejoin the program as soon as you are able. MORE IMPORTANTLY, CALL FOR AN APPOINTMENT WITH ONE OF OUR HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS SO THAT WE CAN TALK ABOUT YOUR CONCERNS OR YOUR HEALTH AND WEIGHT LOSS.

Medications: We have found that most of our patients can take the natural appetite suppressants or the prescription appetite suppressants, like Phentermine, with minimal side effects. When you begin the program, you will be asked to read carefully and sign an informed consent concerning the suppressants. If you do develop any side effects, please contact our office. If our office is closed, please discontinue the medication and contact us during working hours. If your symptoms are persistent or severe, please see your regular physician or go to your local emergency room. Please take your medications with you so that your physician will know which medication you are taking.
