Mollydaysy, sorry, I have no idea, but I can tell you something, there is no "good" shortcuts to weight lost. How many pounds you'd want to loose?
Loosing weight the right way it's hard work but worth it all the way.
Hope you find some answers!

Is it a prescription med? Is it for weight loss,or something else and people have found it to address weight loss also besides it's original use?
I'm going to see what's on the internet about it.
Sounds like another "miracle" med.

It is a drug used for horses, (I think ) that Star magazine says all the celebrities are using to lose weight fast. I'm curious because I'd never heard of it before.

Clenbuterol (for animals)
Background - June 1995

Clenbuterol is a growth-promoting drug in the beta-agonist class of compounds. Its illegal use in show animals is linked to its ability to induce weight gain and a greater proportion of muscle to fat. It is not licensed for any use in the United States, but some countries have approved it for use in animals not used for food, and a few countries have approved it for therapeutic uses in food producing animals. The dosages needed for therapeutic purposes are much lower than those required to increase muscle mass. Clenbuterol may be available in the United States through chemical supply houses for laboratory use and the so-called "black market. When used illegally, it is added to animal feed. Banned by the FDA

II have use this Clen before back in my wanna be "body building days". I bought it when I went to Mexico for vacation and I did not like the the feeling when I was on it. My body temp was a little high, I was very jittery and I did not notice any weight loss or increase of energy. The reason why I stopped using it is because it caused insomnia which I battle with everyday. Besides Clen is very similar to ephedrine as for side effects.
Your best bet on losing weight is eat very slow to allow your stomach to shrink. I loss 15lbs taking Straterra and Concerta for ADHD so if you have adhd you can talk to your doctor.
