I didn't get the chance to find out about the sun effect.
Within 4 days from starting to take Lipantil, I had a massive reaction.
I have severe muscle spasms, weakness and pain in the legs followed by very unpleasant abdominal cramps, bloating and flatulence (the latter making me not nice to be with). This abdonimal problem has, so far, lasted 8 days.
I have since found out that the main ingredients are bound in yeast to make them more effective. I have known for a long time that I have a significant YEAST INTOLERANCE and, had these facts been provided in the Patient Information Leaflet I would never have taken the drug in the first place.
These side ffects are not recorded or listed - I hope others can be made aware of these facts (more than 30 people in a 100 are yeast intolerant).
