HCG is still not approved by FDA to be used as a medication for weight loss, but shots itself are legal as long as it is provided by your health care personal.
Regarding basic side effects, i can suggest you stick to your diet schedule provided by your concerned physician because most common side effects of using this therapy are related to restriction of calories.
I hope I have answered all your concerns regarding your issue
