Lipo-6 Formula contains conmbination of synephrine HCL, Guggulesterones,yohimbine HCL, caffeine and bioperine. out of which caffeine, bioperine and guggulesterones can cause teratogenic effect but at too higher dose than you are taking. synephrine HCL can cause teratogenic effect but it depends on body responce also, if your body metabolism of the drug is fast, then no side effect will appear. study of effect of yohimbine on prgnancy is not done, so no comment. overall chances of teratogenic effect (congenital anomaly) is too less.
