Picked mine up today (been on it for 2 years) and read the patient prescription insert...it said, "read the FDA black box warning information for this medication". It, of course, didn't include that info and I'm having trouble finding official looking websites with the info. Anyone know? I feel so much better on this than any other med so I need to weigh risks and benefits. The Dr. (endo) that prescribed it left and his replacement was ok with me continuing on it.

Black box says "not for weight loss..."

Interesting. Better than little bits I WAC seeing like cancer and liver. Nothing seemed official though. I feel like the patient insert would want to include info like black box stuff...
