Steraline weight and coming off Help

I’ve been on steraline for 6 months and ready to come off! I generally forgot to take it for 5 days I was going to to take it every other day instead of every day! I’ve started to feel like I’m on a boat and dizzy. Shall I ask my doctor first before coming off it?

Also is it true you gain weight from it? I do feel bigger and bloated a lot.

Thank you

Cutting it in half like that is coming off it much too quickly and you are getting withdrawal symptoms. It's best to do it under a doctors care and start cutting down very slowly.

Not what you're looking for?
