Popular Diet Drugs alli and Xenical Can Cause Liver Disease

May 27th, 2010

The FDA warned yesterday that the popular diet drugs alli and Xenical can cause serious liver damage.  From the data published — 13 documented cases among millions of people that have taken the drugs — this is an extremely rare occurrence and not something that should cause alarm if you are on either medication.  However, it is an important reminder that any drug can have serious side effects and should only be taken as a last resort or at least after giving other, safer solutions a serious try.  Alli has been criticized my many for other lesser side effects including what must be a very inconvenient problem of anal leakage.
