I took these pills according to the instructions. I weighed 86 kg, and finally I weigh 78kg, but then the tablets ceased to function properly and my weight began to increase on the contrary, now I weigh 94 kg and I cannot get rid of them. Don’t know what has happened but my Xenical tablets I got from “xenicallab.com”.
Similarly, Pediatrician at the Western Regional Hospital of Pokhara, Dr Yagya Raj Sigdel, the trainee leader expressed the belief that the Advanced training will further help in reducing child mortality rate in Nepal. Dr Sigdel stated jaundice and respiratory-related ailments are the major causes of neonatal mortality and morbidity in Nepal and further added the government has failed to achieve its set target of reducing child mortality rate. In such case, Dr Sigdel said the training holds high relevancy for the medical personnel and enhance the skills of medical personnel and equip them with knowledge of use of modern and world classneonatal equipment.
The organization on the first week of this month handed over neonatal equipment to Kanti Bal Hospital and Paropakar Maternity Hospital of Kathmandu and Bharatpur Hospital of Chitwan.

An underweight and premature child born in 5 months 4 days weighing 558 grams at Pokhara-based Western Regional Hospital some 15 months back was saved by support of neonatal equipments installed by the Breath of Life, Nepal.
