    I took it for a few months.
    I took it for a few months. Just be sure to lather up your feet and hands with GOOD skin cream when I first started it took some time to get the correct dosage, my hands and feet peeled off in LAYERS they would get very hot I had to keep them on ice then they would peel. Also made me very tired!!!

    Good luck with it!!!!
