"I took this drug for 6 months due to weight loss - no appetite - down to 75 pounds. My old insurance covered - then when new insurance was started in Jan 2014, no coverage available. This was WONDERFUL!!! For the first time in my life, I was hungry, enjoyed food, and was always looking forward to my next meal. I would purchase if I could afford because this was the BEST thing that could happen to me - someone who has NO appetite!! No side effects for me."

"I've used Megace to help with lack of feeling hungry, which results in poor protein intake. Megace keeps my hunger level at a point where I want to eat and can keep my weight and nutrition up."

"I had an elderly aunt who lost her appetite and was down to 82 pounds. The doctor told her that if she loses any more weight, she will need to be hospitalized. After 3 months, she is now up to 100 lbs."
