Xenical, the brand name for 120mg capsules of the active ingredient Orlistat, is a weight loss medicine that works by reducing the amount of fat absorbed by the body. It is not a stimulant and has no effect on the brain, nor is it addictive. It is the same active ingredient as Ali slimming capsules but double the strength.
A prescription medicine, it should only be taken by people who have been deemed overweight by their doctor, specifically with a BMI of 28 or above (BMI calculator). As all weight loss patients are different, it is important to see a doctor to determine the best course of action, and rule out conditions like hypothyroidism, diabetes, and high cholesterol. Doctors can also help screen out patients with eating disorders like anorexia, as can pharmacists before supplying the medicine. Read in full
Update February 2023: Branded Levitra has been discontinued by the manufacturer (Bayer).
Drug manufacturer Bayer’s patent on Levitra expired 31 October 2018, following in the footsteps of Pfizer’s Viagra and Lilly’s Cialis, whose patents expired in 2013 and 2017 respectively.
A phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitor, Levitra was introduced to the market in 2003, around the same time as Viagra and Cialis. It enhances blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation by inhibiting the PDE5 enzyme normally responsible for regulating, or limiting, that blood flow.
Also known by the name of its active ingredient, vardenafil, Levitra offers help with sexual performance and improves sexual relationships affected by erectile dysfunction. Read in full

The so-called ‘weekend pill’ will soon be made by generic manufacturers, as Eli Lilly’s patent on the drug is expected to expire in the UK 14 November 2017, and will be made available soon after from Dr Fox.

Containing the active ingredient tadalafil, Cialis was introduced to the market in 2003, to compete with Pfizer’s erectile dysfunction medicine Viagra. It was originally developed to relieve frequent urination or weak flow of urine in patients with enlarged prostates, but it also helps increase blood flow to the penis. Read in full
Club drugs include Ecstasy (MDMA), the ‘date rape drug’ (Rohypnol), Crystal meth or Speed (Methamphetamine), acid (LSD), Special K (Ketamine) and Poppers (amyl nitrates). Increasingly the dangers of these drugs are escalated by taking more than one at the same time.
Typically taken at raves, parties, and clubs, these drugs are used to enhance or distort sensations and perceptions, to feel euphoric, and experience greater enjoyment. They are perceived to increase self-confidence and physical energy.
Of course these drugs are illegal for a reason. They have adverse effects and can be dangerous, even fatal. Problems arise from toxicity due to excessive dose, from interactions, and due to impurities. Illegal drugs are not monitored for quality. Read in full

Which websites do you tend to hang out on? Chances are you often find yourself jumping from one social media site to the next – a recent report states that Britons spend an average of about 1 hour and 20 minutes on social media networks per day, which accounts for a significant percentage of the time we spend online as a whole.
Whether on your laptop, desktop, tablet or mobile phone, as you scroll through your feed you often see health-related posts. People post updates on their weight loss journey, their battle with an illness, or even ask their friends and followers questions about a health condition.
