Till this time there have been no known major side effects with taking L-Leucine. Usually when a substance like L-Leucine is produced organically in nature, and if proper dosage amounts are used, then the chances for side effects are really little. That is consistent with L-Leucine.
Adverse effects have not been associated with high intakes of vitamin B6, another lipotropic ingredient from food sources. However, ataxia and sensory neuropathy have been reported with dosages as low as 100 mg/day in adults taking vitamin B6 supplements for several months. The safe upper limit for vitamin B6 has been set at 100 mg/d, although no adverse effects have been associated with high intakes of vitamin B6 from food sources only. When toxicity occurs, it causes a severe sensory neuropathy, leaving patients unable to walk. Some cases of photosensitivity and dermatitis have also been reported. Vitamin B6 is itself involved in more than 100 enzyme processes that have wide impact on our health. It is needed for the synthesis of amino acids that the body uses to build proteins that are essential for cell formation, and the growth and repair of practically all body structures.
All the products in the lipotropic injection are naturally occurring materials and they are normally needed for the metabolism of the body. So the chance of a component or its metabolite to cause harm to the body is very rare. This is just like giving a supplementary dose of vitamin or food in the form of an injectables, which in turn reduce weight in the very natural way by controlling fat accumulation in the liver and burning of fat from the affected part of the body. These Lipotropic injectables are readily metabolized and removed through the urine even if taken in overdoses. The drug is provided in the form of subcutaneous or intramuscular injections, which are slow release preparations. Hence even in case of overdose does not cause any toxicity. As such no risk is involved in using lipotropic injectables if you consider the many fold benefits available from these injectables.
