Hydroxycut side effects and safety

Some reported side effects for the current formulation of Hydroxycut include anxiety, insomnia, nausea and diarrhea. Additionally, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration reported Hydroxycut can cause liver toxicity, which can cause jaundice, brown urine, abdominal pain, vomiting and fatigue, though reports of these adverse effects are rare.

Hydroxycut contains electrolytes, minerals and stimulants, including calcium and potassium, that may not be appropriate for people with compromised kidney or liver function. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should not use Hydroxycut.

Other possible side effects of Hydroxycut include shakiness, indigestion and heartburn along with potential drug interactions with certain antibiotics, antidepressants, asthma medications or diabetes medication.

Prior to 2004, Hydroxycut contained ephedra, which has since been banned by the FDA and is no longer included in the product.

Hydroxycut products can be effective for people who need help achieving their weight loss goals, though they’re designed to work in tandem with a healthy diet and frequent exercise. Customers report that while the product does work, it can cause some uncomfortable side effects. Results vary by person, so we only recommend this product for those who haven’t had success with other weight loss methods.

    Everyone's anatomy responds different to weight loss supplements. Or any other type of supplement for that reason. I was doing very well sticking to the weight loss regimen I personally created. I was constantly losing 1-3 lbs per week. However, when I took the Hydroxycut weight loss supplement for a few days, for some strange reason I gained a couple of pounds. I'm glad I caught it early. I'll stick to my weight loss experiment I've created specifically for me which is counting my calories, taking colon cleansers, and drinking green tea. I also drink water with lemon, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper in the morning. I like to experiment on myself.

    With weight loss just take your time because you can put it on fast but takes a while to lose. Especially when you get older. Slow and steady is the key and my goal weight is going to accomplish in April 2024. I'll work off the the few pounds I gained from Hydroxycut in a few days. No worries! I was curious if Hydroxycut could make you gain weight and it was confirmed when I did a Google search and read other people's reviews. One fact about me is I know my body extremely well and can sense whenever something is off course. I felt the jitters when I took the first pill. I tried it years ago and experience the same jitters. But I thought I'll give it another go at it. I won't be ever taking this supplement again. I hope this helps someone out!

      After reading so many negative reviews, I felt the need to chime in. First, as someone who is sensitive to caffeine and having negative side effects from stimulant based products, I decided to go with the non stimulant version... so far, so good. This should go without saying, but it is important to read and follow the instructions. To be on the safe side, I started with one gummy 30 minutes before my two largest meals then moved up. I also drink a gallon of water a day (a habit I had prior to starting Hydroxycut), so that wasn't an issue. I then moved up to two gummies before my two largest meals and have had no side effects. I will report back on weight loss (if any) in the next couple of weeks.

      This ain't a wonder pill. There's no such thing. Losing weight requires discipline and hard work. I already maintain a pretty healthy diet and exercise 4 days a week. I chose to take a supplement because I have a pesky 5 lbs that won't go away... but I am 45, and it's harder to lose weight with age. My suggestion is to not jump directly to the pill... start with SMALL diet modifications and some type of movement (even taking a couple 10 minute walks a day can make a HUGE difference). Better yet, find an activity that you enjoy that doesn't FEEL like exercise (I line dance and don't even count that... but it's movement). THEN AND ONLY THEN should you add a SUPPLEMENT.

      I know some have said that they dropped weight by doing nothing, but that defeats the purpose. You didn't gain the weight overnight and you certainly won't lose it overnight. Do what you've always done, get what you've always got. Change your mindset, change your habits... then add the pill. And for those that still get side effects... Everything doesn't work for everyone, but that's no reason to be completely negative and say DON'T USE. That's unfair. Happy Healthy Living!!!

      I am giving this stuff the old college try but it has some pretty wacky side effects. The worse is the cramping in the gut. It eventually goes away but it is pretty painful. It does make you super nervous about life...like we need more of that right now during a pandemic. It also wakes me up at 3am to stare at the 4 walls wondering how long it will be until I have to get up for good. I am taking 1 pill twice per day and will not increase the dosage. I am giving it a few days to see if things get better, but if not, I am going to have to trash the bottle and find a different alternative. Oh and one other thing it makes you feel really warm during the day, which is kind of bizarre.

      Of course everyone reacts differently, so to say you shouldn’t try it at all is kinda absurd. Ex. I don’t take it at all how it says to take it, I also don’t workout, but I do diet properly and I someone drink water throughout the day, even then the side effects don’t hit me hard, I get jitters sure but they go away in a few hours same with the nausea. I lost like 10 lbs in 2 weeks I was at 173 not at 163. Overall I’m happy with it. Would I recommend... sure but just know you could definitely experience it way differently.

      I've been taking Hydroxycut probably longer than is recommended, since April 2020 I started taking it twice a day with a complete change in what I eat and a calorie restricted diet. And a little exercise. A few months after I gave birth. I gained a lot of weight. I was 198lbs. I've never been that big. I started taking hydroxycut and counting calorie intake on a app on my phone. And I've taken it faithfully every day. I've lost 35lbs. I'm currently 163lbs. That's with minimal exercise and staying hydrated and eating healthy not gorging myself with food. I drink a gallon of water everyday.

      I don't care what the world says. I love hydroxycut. I get the buy 1 bottle get on free pack at walmart for $19.99. I will begin to discontinue using it by the beginning of november because I'm about at 160lbs which is my normal weight. Only side effect I've really had was diarrhea in the beginning and sometimes I'm a little jittery if I drink too much coffee or an energy drink right around the time I take the pills or a little afterwards but to each their own. It works for some people, doesnt work for others. But has definitely helped me. I've taken garcinia cambogia and ** and lipozene in the past. But hydroxycut is not costly and worked for me. I recommend it to my friends struggling with weight after pregnancy and a few have been on a weight loss journey similar to mine.

      I came here to read the reviews to see if other people were suffering what I am experiencing with this product. I have to confirm most of the symptoms mentioned are accurate as I have been taking first the gummies and power. I followed directions and I have been getting a great increase of appetite and gain a lot of weight, insomnia, anxiousness, losing my hair, fatigue and stomach jitters. Today I realized that this product was causing all of the symptoms as I did not have any of this before taking it. Please DO NOT take this. I gained 10 pounds because I always felt more hungry after taking the gummies. I followed the instructions correctly and regret to have realized so late. Hope this gets out of my system soon.

      I took the time to write this because I've read many reviews and I think it is unfair when reviews state "do not use!" etc. I understand there can be negative side effects, but we are all different and so is the way we respond to substances. I'm 36, 5'9 and 148 lb as of now. I followed the directions and took one pill, twice a day for a few days. The first day or two were pretty rough with light-headedness and a little nausea. However, I quickly progressed to two pills twice a day. I make sure to stay hydrated and have been working out every day/eating fairly cleanly. I've lost 9 lb after around 50 days and feel stronger and leaner. It doesn't sound like a lot but my body composition has changed of course. I'm at my basic training weight from 12 yrs ago! Try it and see what happens.

      I want to begin by saying I have read about 50 reviews before writing my own. I noticed most were 1 or 2 stars, with comments that have to do with nausea, diarrhea, irregular heartbeat, etc. With all types of pills, whether OTC or prescribed, you will feel side effects, especially when you have a pre-existing condition THAT YOU MAY NOT EVEN KNOW ABOUT. Not saying you already sick, but there are people out there who have a heart condition and don't have a clue that they have one. With that said I will start my review.

      I started taking Hydroxycut Platinum 4 days ago. I take 1 pill per day. I will never take 2 a day, as I know myself, and could not handle that much caffeine. I completely stopped drinking a morning and afternoon coffee as soon as I started taking this pill. My 1st pill was right after breakfast, and I felt an uncomfortable rush of energy about 30min later. There, I said to myself, "I probably won't be taking this again". But, it tapered off to a comfortable level about another 15 min after, and I felt much better. My body had a lighter, more airy feeling. I have been taking in about 1/4 of my usual caloric intake every day for 4 days.

      I've also been moving around more, i.e gardening and yard work, not hitting the weights or treadmill. With that in mind, I started this journey at 206lbs, and 4 days later, I am down to 198lbs. I still take only 1 pill per day, immediately after breakfast, and keep my caloric intake as low as I possibly can all day, while still having 3 meals a day and a snack here and there. Since the 1st day of taking this pill, I have not had anxiety, or nervousness. I have not had any diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, cramping, or any discomfort. The only thing I will say is I have had jitters that last maybe 10-15min, but I've had jitters on an empty stomach with a cup of coffee, so I am not too worried about it.

      I purchased this believing it'll be a great alternative in purchasing medi WeightLoss products and I was wrong. This product actually increased my appetite and weight gain. I used this product for 3 weeks and noticed water retention and an increase in weight. My chest had cramps which made me unable to be physically enabled.

      I'm giving this product a negative review because the product doesn't do what it says it would do. Yes they put ingredients that'll help WeightLoss but I question now in retrospect, why would anyone need to consume so many pills if the ingredients were that potent? 1 pill twice a day for three days and then on day four and on, you have to take 2 pills twice a day so ultimately you'll run out rather quickly before seeing possible results. They suggest 2 months or 60 days but those pills are gone way before that happens so you'll probably end up buying 3 bottles in 60 days before you see "results". Yeah I'm good. If you buy this product believing this would increase WeightLoss, you'll regret it because I'm having the issue of getting back on track. Fyi I'm three weeks, I've gained 8 pounds and I'm on a 1100 protein calorie lifestyle with no carbs, little to no sugar and fat. Don't believe this hype.

I didn’t get any stomach pains or vomiting experiences like everyone else did from the reviews I read. It gives you extreme energy so when you take it as instructed you should work out, it gives me more energy in the gym to last longer run longer lift longer etc. You can’t expect to take this pill and just sit around doing nothing otherwise it will definitely make you feel like crap and jittery etc.

      The only reason I am giving it 4 stars is because it says on the bottle to take it 5 hours before bedtime, and I’m assuming because of its high caffeine dosages so you can’t go to sleep at night. But I take it sometimes like 7 hours before bedtime and once I feel the energy I work out sometimes for 2 hours and feel awesome. But it still keeps me up and can’t go to sleep. That’s the awful part. I end up staying up till 3 am and being exhausted at work when it has finally worn off. That’s the only bad thing, which is why I now just do one pill vs two like the bottle instructs.. That has helped some.

It has gotten so bad that I can't leave my home because of all the pain and the diarrhea. I sit with a heating pad everyday just to try to relieve pain. Now I have bleeding from my rectum and will be seeing the doctor about that today. She feels it could be bleeding hemorrhoids from all the diarrhea. Please take it from someone suffering. PLEASE DON'T TAKE THIS DRUG. Thank you.

      I took Hydroxycut for three days. It was the powder form to mix with water. I'm still feeling it in my stomach and my chest. Here it is a week after I stopped taking it. It was the best near death experience you'll ever have.

      I started using HYDROXYCUT VITAMIN GUMMIES just recently and I've got to say, they have made a difference. I have a lot more energy, I feel motivated and I've lost a few pounds already. I would recommend this product to every adult out there struggling with their weight and motivation to lose the weight. This is a very good product for health and weight loss!

      I have been taking this product (Hydroxycut gummies) for 4 weeks now and have stomach pain and diarrhea so bad that I had to call my doctor and make an appointment to check for colon cancer. Also extreme acid reflux. Really didn't think about this being a side effect from Hydroxycut. Now that I have read these reviews I believe it's all caused by Hydroxycut. I will STOP taking these immediately!

      I decided to try Hydroxycut gummies because my friend said she had got some and it gave her energy so I thought I would try it. After a few days of taking them I didn't notice anything so I thought well I will give it a week and see. Still didn't feel any different, but I did start to have really bad stomach pains and loose bowel movements. I have had them every day now right after I eat. I hope it gets out of my system soon, this is very uncomfortable and miserable. In fact there has even been a change in the color of my loose bowels. It is now black. The reason for my review is because I think this has become a health concern.

      I used Hydroxycut Pro Clinical for 7 months. As soon as I started I got bad headaches. The headaches got worse as time went on. I didn't pay any attention to them. I honestly thought maybe they were tension headaches from dieting. About 5 months into taking them, my scalp got tender. I notice while taking a bath I would lose more hair than normal, also while brushing. I text my aunt and sister, because we started at the same time. They said they were too. We all stopped taking them. By the times we figured it out, we had bald spots. My aunt and sisters still has scalp tenderness not as bad as before. My headaches stopped a week after taking them.

      After this, we googled, "Does Hydroxcut cause hair loss?" We found a blog of woman complaining about hair loss. I wish we would have known before taking these. They did help with losing weight, I think it was more a mind boost than anything. This was back in 2016. We messaged Hydroxycut on Facebook, along with the receipts, also called in reported the problem, they did refund us the money. Yet, told us they never had no one complain about hair loss. I did this back in 2016, just wanted to share my experience. My hair did grow back. I just would never of tried them if I had known that.

      I started taking Hydroxycut SX-7 with my husband. The first day I started having severe stomach pain/cramps, nausea followed by loose bowels. I continue to give it a chance thinking maybe it would go away. It just got worse. I am on day two of not taking the pills and I still can’t sleep because of the pain in my stomach. Not only that but I am still overly hungry and have a sour stomach. I followed all directions and drank plenty of water. I am concerned how long it will take to get out my system and these stomach pain and loose bowels will disappear.

      I have been using Hydroxycut and love the fact that I have been losing weight. It works. The not good thing about it is I did not pass a drug test because of it. I do not do drugs of any kind. Hydroxycut is the only thing I have taken. I came up positive for **. I would recommend not using Hydroxycut for a while before if you are looking for a job and have to pass a drug test.
