Bontril or Adipex?

Today was my first time to go to the doctor for the weight loss shots. They gave me an injection of B12 and hCG combined. Has anyone heard of this? If so, what were the results compared to B12 or hCG alone. They also gave me choice between Bontril or Adipex. I chose Bontril because they said it doesn't hit you as hard at first. Has anyone had results from Bontril??? All you mostly see on here is stuff about Adipex. Thanks.

I live in Beaumont, Texas. He was my pregnancy doctor for both my pregnancies. I didn't know he was doing the shots until I had to get him to sign release papers for my new job. So I would call around to Ob-Gyn's in your area.

What state do you live in? I have been looking for a doctor in Illinois for HCG & B12? Any suggestions? How do I find one?

Thanks!

Which ob-gyn in Beaumont do you go to that gives these shots? I'm in Beaumont also...

You can get those shots @ ONTRAK. They also have an office in Orange. I am going to do my orientation 3/17 in Beaumont & then go to Orange weekly.
