Which weight loss (supplement) medicine would work with a hypothyroid patient? Any side effects of garcinia cambogia, grape seed extract, coffee bean extract?

Question

Hypothyroidism is a common ailment which is controlled by the daily intake of the prescribed medicine. Once the medicine is taken then maximum weight gain that can be attributed to Thyroid problem is 2-3 kgs only. Rest of the weight has to be reduced by better diet and daily exercise. All these herbs and tea / coffee which claims to reduce weight is mostly marketing gimmicks. Please do not rely on them, because it will lead to dissapointment and frustration. Calorie reduction + daily exercise is the only way to reduce weight and be fit.
