After taking the medicine for 2 weeks, a 19-year-old girl in Ha Nam became exhausted and was hospitalized with liver enzymes 30 times higher than normal.

The patient was self-conscious about her appearance, so she bought weight loss tea online and drank it. After 2 weeks, she lost 5 kg, but she began to feel tired, thirsty, lost weight, had a full stomach, and felt faint. Her family took her to the Central Endocrinology Hospital for emergency care on January 21.

Test results showed that the patient's blood sugar level was increased, and liver enzymes were 30 times higher than normal, causing damage and destruction of liver cells. The girl showed signs of liver and kidney failure.

The doctor prescribed fluid replacement, liver protection drugs, and blood sugar control. Thanks to early detection and prompt treatment, the patient did not suffer brain damage.

Currently, the patient's liver enzyme index has decreased, only 4-5 times higher than normal, and his physical condition is gradually improving.

Many types of weight loss tea have unknown origins and are dangerous to users.

Dr. Nguyen Trong Hung, Deputy Head of the Department of Clinical Nutrition and Dietetics, Central Endocrinology Hospital, said that this young woman had the highest liver enzymes of all the hospital's patients.

According to doctors, there are currently many people who arbitrarily choose weight loss regimens such as fasting or taking "rapid" weight loss products of unknown origin, which are very dangerous. These weight loss products pose a serious risk of damaging health, causing dehydration, malnutrition, and affecting life.

Doctors recommend not using weight loss products indiscriminately or losing weight quickly. "To lose weight effectively, you need to follow the instructions of medical specialists to ensure your health. Avoid following online advertisements for quick weight loss products, which can easily lead to trouble," Dr. Hung emphasized.
