what are the negative effects of weight loss pills on adolescents?
specifically hydroxycut, and then weight loss pills in general. thanks guys. ^.^

As with all weight loss pills, proper eating habits and regular exercise are important in achieving your goal. Expend more calories than you consume for success. Remember these products are not endorsed by the FDA (except for lipitrex I think), so check with your physician before taking any supplements.
I found this one article that discusses Hydroxycut (the one you wanted to know about),Thermocerin, OROVO, and AmbiSlim PM and the active ingredients in weight loss pills. My wife wanted to take pills to lose weight and she found this very informative to read. I hope you find it as useful as she did.

You can also read about Phetermine, an extremely popular weight loss supplement, that was approved by the FDA in 1959.

Then there is Lipitrex. Lipitrex is a weight loss product patented by Progressive Health Nutraceuticals, an American company founded in 1997. Read more here:

And last of what I know is Remedilean developed by Remedic Health. Remedic Health has spent years researching and developing a weight loss product to attack the problem suffered by millions of Americans. It is so that they introduced to the market this new product called Remedilean, intended to solve the problem by making the patient to consume less food and at the same time metabolizing more fat.

You should always focus on a strong diet/workout plan that will suit your weight loss goals and the time you need to do it. I have tried all sorts of methods to lose weight and here are the three things to concentrate on. Exercising is one of the main things you should. Some people claim to not have time but you should at least get some cardio in and get the heart racing. Then the diet is the next thing you need to consider. I'm on a strict calorie diet which brings us to the next thing. Diet pills
I have tried all sorts of them and the only ones that work are the natural ones that contain herbs. The right one will give you plenty of energy along with amazing weight loss support. I'm on Proactol which is a natural appetite suppressant along with being a fat blocker. It really stops the food cravings along with blocking up to 28% of the fat you eat. It's really incredible if your wanting to lose a lot of weight and maintain the weight you want. Read up about Proactol at Theweightlossplace.com where I saved $30 on Proactol and got a lot of info there. Good luck and I hope this helps.

In moderation, or for short times, I see no major problems with these types of pills.
However, if they are used for a very long time (or overused), they can disrupt the stomach lining. Making sure to eat a meal, or drink them down with milk, helps.
Also, SOME people get jittery because of the caffeine content.
