phentermine.jpgWhat is Phentermine?

Phentermine, otherwise known as phenyl-tertiary-butylamine, is a controlled substance often prescribed as an appetite suppressant.  It is also sold under the names of Adipex, Anoxine, and Zantryl, among others.  Though approved for prescription by the FDA, there is some question as to whether this is the best way to go about losing weight.

Phentermine Chemistry

Phentermine works to suppress appetite by stimulating specific neurons in the brain that release dopamine, adrenaline, and norepinephrine.  These chemicals are commonly associated with feelings of well-being or increased mental alertness and they also simulate the signal received from your stomach to tell you that you are full.

Phentermine Side Effects

  • Insomnia
  • Increased blood pressure
  • Irritability
  • Nervousness
  • Dry mouth
  • Blurred vision
  • Heartburn/Acid reflux
  • Physical/Psychological dependence

Phentermine Conclusion

Phentermine is certainly a product backed by quite a bit of research and regulated carefully by the FDA, but it still carries some risk of significant side effects.  If you have tried most other options and still struggle with dieting, you may want to talk to your doctor to try a phentermine product, but expect close scrutiny from you doctor while using it and very high cost as it is prescription.

    Before taking phentermine I weighed 218lbs and now after almost 5 months I weigh 179lbs. I probably would have lost more weight but my 2nd and 3rd month I ate fast food often because of no time to cook or pack a lunch for work due to pulling 80hrs a wk. But I would still lose about 5lbs a month eating out daily….however I do not recommend that anyone eat this way and take phentermine because you would be wasting your money. The last month a a half I have taken it more serious because I know that I will have to stop after this months supply is up. Well, doing so I have lost almost 15 more pounds. I highly recommend this prescription to others but be sure to take your lipo b12 shot atleast every 2 wks. I did not because it is hard for me to get out of work early to go to the drs office…if I did it 1 x a wk or 1 x every 2 wks then I probably would have lost 20-25lbs a month vs 5-15lbs a month. I love the energy, I don’t get hungry, it put me in a better mood, but I take half in the morning and half around 2pm…this works better for me because when I took 1 in the morning as prescribed I was bouncing off the walls and I became to irritable and very aggressive not to mention defensive…lol. Take half 2 x a day and you will love it. I am disappointed that I will have to stop because its not healthy to take it longer than 4-6 months. Let me know if you like it. Goodluck!

    I took phentermine for 42 days then I am now off of it for 30 days. I am looking forward to going back on it because in that 42 days, I lost 20 lbs. I am exercising like never before in my life and enjoying it. My energy levels are great, and am not eating everything in front of me. If you use caution, and have a dr that will pay attention to you while on this, you can have awesome results. It is not a miracle pill, there is no such thing, you still have to work for the loss, but it is much easier with it. Always before I would take something, not see any results and go right back into the same rut as before. With this, I see daily results and that makes me want to work even harder to obtain my goal!! It is NOT that expensive either compared to some of these other “diet pills” out there. On average about $1.00 per pill (probably a little high there) and I take one a day. Good luck to anyone out there fighting this like me. I truly think that quitting smoking was easier than losing weight!

    Kim,
    I’m not going to ask you where you live. But, I live in MD and there is a doctor on the shore that gives it to me. I go see him once a month, he weighs me and checks my vitals, then gives me a 30 day supply. It costs $80.00/month, but is well worth it IMO.

    I have been taking it now since June 8th. I am down about 30 lbs. My only question is I try to split the pill, but then it doesn’t seem to work as well. I start to get hungry around 5 or 6 in the evening. And the doctor of course does not want to increase it. What should I do.

    Cristy.. Try taking the whole pill? I was taking 1/2 at first because it made me too jittery. But as I got used to it, went to a whole pill. I can’t get it anymore unless I want to pay serious money (I’m in California). So now I’m trying to find something that compares that is over the counter. Not sure that I will?? I love this stuff though! I lost 20 pounds in just a few months and am now weighing 125 pounds and wearing a size 5. It’s been more than 15 years since I looked so good! I have not gained it back since I stopped taking it (over 3 months ago) and I do not exercise. But I do still have to watch what i eat which is a good thing for my body anyway! NO FAST FOOD.

    Look for a sports performance doctor. That is where I originally got my forst script but now my pcp is prescribing it for me. I am 5′7″ n 246 lbs so he was not very hesitant.

    MY DOCTOR TOLD ME TO TRY THE HALF PILL FIRST AND IF I DONT GET HUNGRY IN THE AFTERNOON TO JUST TAKE HALF BUT I NOTICED I WOULD GET HUNGRY. SO I TOLD HER THAT MY ISSUES WERE IN THE AFTERNOON AND SHE TOLD ME TO TAKE ONE HALF IN THE MORNING AND THE OTHER HALF LIKE ABOUT 3 OR 4PM. AND IT DID HELP ME. I WOULDNT GET HUNGRY. SO TRY IT THAT WAY MAYBE IT WILL HELP U.

    THE ONLY BAD THING IS THAT IF U STOP TAKING THE PILL “U WILL GAIN WEIGHT”. I STARTED TAKING IT IN OCTOBER 2008. I WAS WEIGHTING 232LBS AND IN JUNE OF 2009 I WENT AND I WAS AT 195 LBS BUT WHEN MY KIDS WERE OF SCHOOL I DIDNT GO. AND I WENT BACK ON SEPTEMBER 2009 AND I WEIGHTED 209 LBS. IVE BEEN SICK WITH THE FLU AND I HAVENT TAKEN IT. ON THAT SAME WEEK I WENT TO SEE MY DOCTOR AND I HAD LOST 3 LBS BUT I WENT TO MY REGULAR DR. TODAY AND I WEIGHT 215 LBS. SO U REALLY HAVE TO BE ON IT TO LOOSE THE WEIGHT. I HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN.. I KNOW I CAN LOOSE WEIGHT FAST..

    I used the pill in 2008 and lost 20 lbs in my first month. I was prescribed the pill through a program called Doctor’s Rx.

    I have lost 29 lbs but have taken it off and on since Jan. and only pays 14.99. I just got another rx but because of the health risk from taking it so long, don’t no if I should take it.
