How Safe Is Taking HCG Drops For Weight Loss After Being Diagnosed With Epilepsy?

I have epilepsy. Is it safe for me to take homeopathic HCG drops for weight loss? A friend of mine has had great success with this. I take 400mgs of Phenytoin(Dilantin) plus 150mgs of Lamictal per day(maint. level @ 15). My last seizure was 14mos ago. (which is common for me; one a yr maybe) The seizures started in my mid 30's, I am 43 now. 5'6, 166lbs. Tests show no explaination. In good physical athletic condition. No allergies or other health issues. Had tubal done after 3rd child, developed endometriosis, had a complete hysterectomy. I do not take hormone replacements. I feel great but I'm burdened by an unappriciated amount of belly fat. I feel like I need help reaching my weight loss goals(25-30lbs)

Hello,

You can check the cover for desired strength. The size of the tablet does not matter as it depends on the manufacturer.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
