There are a wide variety of weight loss supplements available over the counter that claim to help you lose the pounds. owever, become aware of the potential dangers of these diet pills before deciding to use them.

Most weight loss pills found over the counter claim to aid diets by either suppressing your appetite, blocking the absorption of fats or raising your metabolism. While these supplements may help you achieve some short-term weight loss, they often lead to dangerous yo-yo dieting. Weight loss medication is available by prescription, but is reserved for the seriously overweight.

Here are some things to keep in mind so that you can use weight loss pills safely:

• Known side effects of diet supplements include insomnia, drug addiction, high blood pressure, heart palpitations, depression and gastrointestinal problems
• Strictly follow the instructions on the label and read all labels carefully
