Can I Take Oxyelite Pro While Having Ulcerative Colitis?
I have Ulcerative Colitis and am currently on 10 mg prednisone 2 times a day and 800 mg of asacol 2 times a day. I am 23 years old, 5' 3", and weigh 150 and according to the doctor i should be 130. Can I take Oxyelite Pro which is a weight loss pill while i am on these meds to reduce my weight - I have been eating healthy and working out but its not helping and I am getting married in 6 months and need to shed off this extra weight. Please advise

I think supplements like them are not recommended. Take a walk 30 minutes a day for 5 days in a week. Cut down on fried food. Drink a lot of water.
