A word of warning to readers of Ukmedix News is that we have dicovered that weight loss pills which are laced with amphetamines are on the market in Europe and the United Kingdom. The very dangerous weight loss drugs appear to be manufactured in Brazil as they are very popular over there.

Amphetamine diet pills are completely illegal in the United Kingdom and in fact all of the EU as well as America. They work by speeding up the metabolism which puts pressure on the heart and other organs which has even been fatal in some cases. The new names of the amphetamines are PEB-One and PEB-Two and according to the Food & Drug Administration of America they are often sold through spam emails and on auction web sites. Previously at Ukmedix News were aware of amphetamine based diet medication being sold online as Emagrece Sim.
One report we came across that Ukmedix News saw that these amphetamines weight loss pills were being packaged in boxes which had labeling on them claiming that they were completely natural and therefore perfectly safe. In one case a nurse who had used this so called natural product ended up losing her job after she tested positive for amphetamines which are often used as a party drugs. The nurse in question could also end up losing her licence to work as a nurse unless she can prove that she took the amphetamines without her knowledge.
Our advice from Ukmedix News is always to stay away from natural or herbal weight loss medication as over the previous few years with the advent of spam e-mail selling weight loss products so much of the natural weight loss industry is contaminated with prescription medication. Even in some health shops in the United Kingdom there have been reports of so called natural weight loss medication being spiked with prescription weight loss medication.
