I just started to take this product, and I already hate it. This is my second and my last day. I have never in my life felt so damn depressed. Everything felt horrible. My heart kept beating fast...my head pounded like crazy...I felt like I was on crack!

I've been taking Zantrex-3 for about a month. I take 2 when I get up and have breakfast and I take two 30 minutes before dinner. I've lost 10 LBS. I feel a bit wired about 30 minutes after I take it and it gives me gas. I also get a empty/full feeling in my stomach. Like my stomach is empty of food, but full of air/gas. I feel it's just as good or bad as any other diet aid. It works for some people and doesn't for others. Some have mild side effects (like me), apparently, others have worse side effects.

Zantrex 3... What more can I say? I decided to take my first dose at work. I am a financial specialist for Sprint PCS which means I answer calls from iriate customers all day... Not a good idea with this product. My heart felt like it was going to jump through my throat onto the floor. The effects are similar I believe, to snorting 30 lines of cocaine... and I have never done a hard drug in my life. Every 5 seconds I felt like I was going to emotionally breakdown if one more customer even hinted at a negative tone.. Profuse sweating, jitters, and dry throat. The feeling Zantrex 3 gave me for 48 consistent hours made me feel guilty enough to believe I would indoubtably fail a drug test. However, during the course of my restless night of sleep, I will admit that 2 hours after my dose, I FELT ON TOP OF THE WORLD! Running around a million miles an hour.. My girlfriend asked if I had smoked crack... so did my boss. I felt like I could run coast to coast. Weight loss wise... I've lost 5 pounds in 4 days.. but that could be b/c I'm on Atkins.. which basically means all I eat is chicken, beef jerky, and cheese. In summary, if you want a quick fix, grab a bottle. I do not recommend this to people that cannot handle hard core jump starts. It will give you a heart attack.

I am happy to see that others have experienced the same symptoms that I have while using Zantrex-3. I only wish I had read these comments prior to purchasing the product. During the first week I took the pills as instructed, careful not to take them in the after noon. The pill did give me a since of fullness, but the feeling wore off within two hours. I experienced sleeplessness, night sweats, and headaches. I also felt very anxious/gitttery. I continued to take Zantrex-3 for 2 weeks believing the side effects would subside and I would lose weight. My theory proved to be wrong. I stopped taking the drug after having an anxiety attack. I did not lose weight and will NOT use Zantrex-3 again.

I have been taking Zantrex 3 for six weeks now and I LOVE it! I am not sensitive to caffiene, so that might be why I do so well on it. I have never had so much energy or mental focus! My appetite is noticibly less and I don't seem to be craving carbs any more. I've lost five pounds in six weeks without exercising. I recommend this product to anyone who isn't sensitive to the high dose of caffiene in it.

After having my second child 5 years ago i needed to lose weight so i tried hydroxycut with ephedra. I lost almost 20 pounds. Then poof no more ephedra. So when this product came out I was excited. Well i haven't lost a pound!!! I haven't had the stomach problems, but I did feel like I was going to have a heart attach yesterday. I took 2 pills when I woke up. No More!!! If you want to waste your $ and have a brush with death then this product is for you. If you really want to lose weight, diet, exercise and lots of water are a much better way to do it.

I tried zantrax-3 for the total of 2 weeks and everyday I was sick. I lost 4 lbs from it, because I was so sick that I could not eat. Why did I try the product for 2 weeks? I was trying to get my body use to taking the product. Because sometimes your body have to build up to a new product. I worked out and ate healthy prior to taking the pills. I am not over weight, but have a problem area that I need help with.Diet and exercise alone was not taking care of the problem. Anyways after taking the pills I was scared to workout, because I thought I was going to have an heart attack.(seriouly)...The last straw for me was waking up out of my sleep (which i harderly got) to throw up. STAY AWAY FROM THAT PRODUCT, PLEASE. I see a big lawsuit in their future.

I have been taking Zantrex 3 for 2 weeks now. I have lost 3 lbs. It does give you a great energy boost. The first day I took it, I could not sleep that night hardly at all. Also the first day, I did have one situation, where I had a stressful driving situation, and got severe palpitations, and thought I was having a panic attack for the first time in my life. But since then, I have been fine. I ONLY take ONE pill first thing in the morning and I have not experienced any diarrhea or cramps or anything like the other reviews have talked about. I have had a few headaches though. I would NOT recommend taking more than one pill a day if you want to sleep at night! I don't know if it is worth the weight loss yet or not. But I have been eating whatever I want and barely exercising, and have lost inches in my waist and 3 lbs in 2 weeks.

I have been desperate to lose weight before my wedding in June, I decided on this product to lose a quick 30 lbs. I have been exersizing and trying hard to eat right and small portions. Unfortunately I have had bad results except it has managed to supress my appetite. I have taken 2 in the morning and 2 at lunch and cannot function. I am so depressed I cannot take care of our two kids. My life is good but after these I do not feel anything but miserable. I am cutting down to 2 a day to see if this will help but I cannot put up with this depression any longer. I cannot even clean the house or handle anything. My throat sometimes feels as though it is closing and I want to cancel my wedding and all. This product is Dangerous for some people, use with caution

I have read most of the reviews about this product and for some I can agree. The first week I took it, it seemed more like a laxative than anything else, then I started to feel naucious and anxious. I thought if I stick it out for a week, then the effects would wear off. WHAT I DID NOTICE THOUGH, is that you must eat within 15-30 minutes and it MUST be a meal. What I do now is take 1 a day 15 minutes before breakfast, then eat my bowl of cereal and I am fine. I haven't had any side effects or anything. I realize that I am not taking the full dose, but I am doing something. Depending on if I can remember, I will take one before dinner as well. I have seen slow weight loss, in 3 weeks, I have lost 3lbs, but I am proud of my consistency because when I stopped, I was longing for major coffee. I found myself feeling withdrawl symptoms and wouldn't feel better unless I had a cup of coffee. I am not discouraging you from using it, but maybe try it in a modified way and make sure you eat a MEAL.

I have been on Zantrex 3 for a month and finally figured out why I feel so NUTS! In my quest to lose weight I bought Zantrex 3 and took 6 pills a day. At first I had the same results most of you had. Loose stool, restless nights, a little anxiety at first. After a week it was making me very anxious and at times I thought I was going to have a heart attack. Tightness in my chest with intense heat in my face. I actually thought I was going to die a few times but I passed it off as being a "panic attack" brought on by stress. Looking back this only happened when I would obsess about troubling marriage issues(that happened 2 yrs ago). I would get super paranoid. The scary thing is it could've killed me. If you are going thru any relationship issues DONT TAKE IT! You will get really paranoid and panic ALOT! Ive never had a reaction to diet pills like this one. Plus Ive only lost 8 pounds. Not alot considering the amount I took plus hitting the gym 3-4 times a week. I dont know what it is in that made me freak but if your a sensitive person BEWARE. Ive been off it for 2 days now and Im depressed. Hopefully this will pass soon and I will be normal again. I think Im better off replacing a meal with a good protein shake and cutting down on calories.

okay first of all .. DO NOT take this product... it may make you loose weight but you will get severe headaches, throwing up, and lack of sleep... these are key things to performing everyday tasks... this product is unsafe! waste of money!

I tried zantrex 3 for 2 days. Both days I was extremely tired and exhausted. I did not feel any energy. I got massive stomache aches and I felt like they were a laxative because within half hour of taking them, I was having massive cramps and lower back pain and felt like I couldn't make it the restroom. I also was dizzy and almost felt poisoned because I just did not feel right. Nausea was another symptom. I just followed the direction on the bottle and I swear I will never put one in my mouth again. Horrible product and false advertising. Who knows what other ingredients are in them that are not listed. If they are less than 100mg or grams (one or the other)then they are not legally binded to label them on the product. Never again!

I have been taking zantrex 3 for a few days now. from readign the abouve posts, it might seem that zantrex is a pill with terrible side effects, however, I used to take another well known diet pill ages ago and talk about side effects! with zantrex3 i can barely feel the pill working, i do have a bit mor eenergy andam a bit less hungry but trust me, this pill is light weight compared to other fat burners. I have no trouble sleeping, no unconfortable side effects. If you drink coffee each day then this product will not be too hard core for you, i feel more energized drinking espresso than with this product.

Hearing so much HYPE about this product, being a gym head, I purchased it. I am aware that with nearly any product or supplement there might be some side effects and after taking many products with ephedra, I was use to some side-effect that you either adjust too, or they go away. I have been taking this product for 2 weeks, and I can assure you, I have not had a night of sleeping without waking up, tossing and turning, not being able to go back to sleep, and once I am sleeping, I experince night sweats. I am so happy to review these comments from other, many describe the same effects. I have been exhausted as a result of tossing and turning all night for nearly 2 weeks. After leaving work, I am in a strange mode, tied, but still energized from the product. This is a very dangerous mode to hit the gym, you are prime to pass out or have an accident. I am in no way overweight, but just wanted to shed some pounds to define my abs. I can no longer take this product, I must be able to get some sleep in order to perform my duties at work. A big plus to this product, every night I wake up to use the bathroom, and it reminds me of a time when I was 16, if you know what I mean, but I am single so there is no one in bed next to me, so its more of a bother. This is another side effect, increased trips to the bathroom to urinate. This product scared me, I have never had problems sleeping, or waking up and not being able to go back to sleep, and I have never had to urinate so much. As far as the weight loss, I have dropped a few pounds, I can tell, but its not worth staying up all night. I am SO TIRED, I cannot believe I have not slept well in two weeks, I think my average nighly sleep time may currently be 3 hours. I dont suggest this product.

Zantrex 3 is a Dangerous drug. It almost caused me to have a heart attack. I want to warn other people about this drug. I also want to let the proper folks know about this drug, Do not use Zantrex 3......

Speaking as a guy who took a number of ephedra-based supplements and a number of prohormonal supplements a few years ago-- Zantrex 3 is dangerous. I didn't have the palpitations that some people claimed to have, but in addition to being wired all day (almost annoyingly so) I found myself being not only unable to sleep for HOURS beyond when I normally sack out, but also being extremely paranoid and depressed. Night sweats, tossing and turning, horrible outlook on life. I have read product reviews about becoming depressed or manic while using supplements and thought that it was all psychosomatic-- people getting psyched out because they were afraid of trying the new supplement. I have never had these sorts of problems until trying Zantrex-3, and I assure you that THEY ARE REAL. I have dealt with very, VERY mild depression off and on throughout my life (more than a pessimistic outlook, less than something that would require treatment), but both times that I took Zantrex 3 I found myself feeling absolutely hopeless and irrationally overwhelmed with life (note: Both times I took 2 pills before breakfast and lunch, but not dinner. I figured that it would wear off by bedtime if I did that. Ha!). I spent the better part of last night almost crying about things that don't bother me in the least this morning. That's messed up, weight loss or no. I don't know what it is about these pills that does this to me, but I don't ever want to experience it again... nor do I want anyone else to. Do yourself a favor and pass these things up.

I tried Xantrex-3 to try to lose 10lbs the easy way. The first day I took 2 tablets at the same time. During the whole day I felt really jittery due to all the caffeine. At night I felt extremely sick, my heart was pounding and beating extremely fast, I had hot and cold sweats, my head was aching and I could not sleep. I felt like I was going to die. Anyway, I realized that it was because of my sensitivity to this product. To some people 2 pills may not have any effect, but I recommend for those of you who are adamant about trying this to only take 1 pill at first. Even when only taking one pill I still feel jittery, but I rarely drink soda w/caffeine. So, I recommend finding a better pill with less side effects or better yet just a better diet and exercise. Good luck!

When I first bought the bottle of Zantrex-3 I tried taking the 2 pills before my meals, and even after my first dose, I didn't even get to eat the meal, because I had become so ill with hot and col sweats, vomiting and a migraine that I couldn't even get rid of with my prescription Imitrex injection and other pain medication, I had to go to the emergency room for help with the pain. Now, I know I am going to sound stupid, but due to the high cost of the pills that I couldn't afford in the first place and I hated to waste them, and was thinking, welllll... What IF.. it wasn't the pils. what if it was a coincidence.. and What IF.. I just take one pill and not even at every meal..a little is probabaly better than none right and will probably still help me lose weight faster than if I took none at all right, especially because I am losing weight already from eating so well and exercising so consitently anyway and I just wanted something to speed it up even more is all... SOooo after a few days of these mind games I played with myself...I tried taking just 1 pill before a meal,,, only 1 pill and lo and behold I got a migraine and and naseaus and hot and cold sweats again for the whole day , just minus the emergency oom this time, and I didnt feel well the next day, residually even! So, anyone who says the other people Only got ill becasue they took too many..I say.. for some of us.. 1 is many! Zantrex 3 is a waste of money and made me feel sick faster than when I was on ephedra in a more obvious way.
