Your body mass index does not really warrant medication for weight loss, it is however relatively safe to try the duromine for a month if you see your doctor after a week to check your blood pressure .You should take the Effexor and Serequel regularly as prescribed by your doctor as they will not work if you take them only when you feel necessary , this would be better than taking Valium regularly for it is addictive and can cause depression .
