Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi there ~

If you are eating right and exercising right and are on noristerat shots for contraception, I recommend that you consult an endocrinologist to see if you can take any kind of weight loss pills. Most weight loss pills are unsafe. I cannot stress enough how important it is to make sure that you are taking your medications under the strictest condition of monitoring by a competent and qualified psychiatrist or an endocrinologist. I hope this helps. Take care and have a lovely day!
