  • Corn Starch in medication.

    The tablets also contain the following inactive ingredients: copolyvidone, corn starch, crosscarmellose sodium, glycerin, lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, hypromellose, microcrystalline cellulose, polyethylene glycol, and titanium dioxide. Iron oxides are used as coloring agents in the beige (10 mg) and pink (20 mg) tablets.

    Are these ingrediants in a 20 mg tablet going to effect my weight loss? Ive been on it 3 days, ive still seen weight loss. I've been on atkins for 4 months, so its not like im losing water weight.

      Is this a chewable tablet? Lactose and glycerin are typically sweeteners and I can't imagine why a non-chewable would have it.

      Anyhow, can you find an alternative that doesn't contain lactose, glycerin or corn starch?

        Sorry. I didn't notice "corn starch" and "glycerin" in your first post, that's why I didn't reply.

        Some people have problems with this medication (not necessarily because of those two ingredients), so keep an eye on how your weight loss goes (lbs and inches) and if it causes you trouble, ask your doctor for other options.
