Hi, No don't take any supplements or medicines for weight loss. Go for natural ways. Eat controlled meal portions. Avoid oily, processed, outside food and sweets completely. Drink at least 3 litres of water daily. Eat less rice, potatoes. You can consult me for a detailed and customized diet plan. Regards
