    Hi. I've done the same as you but I stopped taking mine in November after running out of them.  I'm seeing the Dr next week for more. So I'll let you know x

    Hi I was on them until November last year, I lost 2 stone in 7 weeks then cravings got the better of me over Xmas!! I went back the docs on Fri to get weighed and had put 5lbs back on. I told them I was determined to get back on my diet and he prescribed me another month. Think it all depends on your doctor or. 1 doctor at my surgery wont prescrib them cuz he thinks you should lose weight on your own, I never make an appointment with him lol. Good luck on your journey x
