What Are The Side Effects Of Myoden Injection For Weight Loss?

Are there medical concerns about getting myoden injections for weight loss? I have been getting them from a weight loss clinic for 8 weeks and they seem to help both in energy levels and, interestingly, with my overall muscle pain and arthritic pain in my hands. I feel really good & was told this could be from the myoden as it is used in fibromyalgia and other conditions. I was unable to continue the B12 and lipoden with the myoden injections as I broke out in cystic bumps on my face.

Hi & Welcome.
I can understand your concern for the safety of Myoden injection for weight loss.
Myoden (Adenosine Monophosphate) has an important role in metabolic reactions that affect fat and carbohydrates & hence being used to treat a variety of conditions, including obesity.

Myoden injection appears to be safe for most people. However, it can cause breathing problems and chest pain (it may worsen symptoms in patients with heart diseases such as chest pain and heart attack) particularly when given at high doses.

Other side effects include headache, heart pounding, low BP, increase in uric acid levels (this might trigger an attack of gouty arthritis), sweating, flushing, sleep problems, coughing, & anxiety.

The FDA has approved its use in treating certain kinds of irregular heartbeat (supraventricular tachycardia) as a prescription-only intravenous medicine)

There is no scientific evidence that proves the effectiveness of Myoden injections for weight loss.

I would recommend certain lifestyle modifications like diet, regular exercise. avoiding alcohol, and eating a healthy balanced diet can be effective in reducing the body weight.

Hope this answers your query.

A feed back is appreciated.
