| Other conditions: | | tension headaches |
| Other drugs taken: | | pain killers such as Naproxen sodium | | |
Reported Results |
| Benefits: | | I experienced a weight loss of approximately 3 kg in 1 month. The effects tapered off in the second month with the total weight loss to be estimated at 6 kg. Subsequently I felt less urge to snack |
| Side effects: | | I experienced mood swings, short temper, thirst. I was constantly thirsty and had mild tension headaches too. Often, I will flare up for no good reason but the outbursts went away swiftly. I also observed that I am quite bloated after food. |
| Comments: | | I took the medication for 3 months, 3 times a week to prevent addiction. The treatment is optional with Mediaxal another weight loss drug which I opted out. I noticed an obvious decrease in appetite during the first 3 weeks with a gradual return of my appetite. I went back for a review every 2 weeks where my blood pressure and weight was recorded. The medicine was supplemented with a low calorie diet and exercise. |

| Comments: | | Take 1 pill in the morning to treat ADD-like symptoms that started after a car accident. Took several years to get Chronic Fatigue/Fibromyalgia diagnosis and quite awhile after that before this medicine was prescribed. Tried most of the standard ADD medications to help with brain fog but bad side effects, worked for awhile then stopped, or no effect. Many doctors not comfortable perscribing this medication for ADD or ADD-like symptoms since it's a weight-loss medicine. I usually only take this medication during the work week and give my body a break on teh weekends. |

| Condition / reason: | | Weight Loss |
| Dosage & duration: | | 25mg taken twice daily for the period of 3 months |
| Other conditions: | | Very tired all the time. Very hungry all the time. |
| Other drugs taken: | | None for this particular problem. Weight loss. | | |
Reported Results |
| Benefits: | | They gave me a little more energy for the first week or two. But then after that, no noticable increased energy was felt. The first 3 days my hunger seemed to be less, but I think this was only due to a plecebo affect. |
| Side effects: | | None that I could notice. Then did not give me insomnia. |
| Comments: | | I was about 50 lbs overweight. I was eating all the time, but mostly after about 9:00pm. And I was always craving sweets. I tried to get myself to the gym, but I was too tired all the time. I tried other appetite suppresents, like hoodia, but nothing seemed to work. The I finally talked the doctor in to prescribing me phentermine. She was reluctant because I have high blood pressure and I take medicine for that. But I took my blood pressure everyday for the 3 months and I had NO increase in pressure as long as I took my medicine. Unfortunately, after the three months, I had only lost 5 lbs. which, I always seemed to fluctuate anyway. So to recap, phentermine did absolutely nothing for me. |

Reported Results |
| Benefits: | | Upon first taking the medication it significantly reduced my hunger almost to the point that I had to remind myself to eat during the day. It also gave me alot of energy so working out didn't seem like such a chore anymore. I felt more refreshed and awake in the morning instead of wanting to hit the snooze button over and over. |
| Side effects: | | At first when I started the phentermine, it made me very thirsty and a little bit jittery but that wore off after about a week. I also had trouble falling asleep at first if I didn't take the medication early enough in the morning and woke up quite a bit throughout the night. These side effects all diminished after about a month of usage. |
| Comments: | | First I had to fill out a patient questionaire & submit blood for some blood work that was required. I was prescribed to take one pill after breakfast in the morning. I also went in for weekly weigh ins and measurements. They also gave me some vitamins to take along with the phentermine but I did not take those since I hate having to take any kind of pills. Overall I am very happy with the results achieved from taking phentermine and occasionally take them when I feel myself getting off track again. |

| Benefits: | | I lost ten pounds in the first month. I was given 90 more days....and doing well. |
| Side effects: | | I woke up at 3:30 a.m. for about a week, but that is back to normal.
I had a lot of energy.
Crave water, which isn't really a bad thing.
The bottoms of my feet itched for about 3 days.

| Comments: | | I am needing to lose 60 pounds. Had been struggling to lose for 5 years. My sister lost 75 using Adipex, and I went to her doctor to try it. I love it so far. My clothes are fitting looser. I exercise regularly and eat less. I do not feel hungry or crave sweets like before. I can't wait to see another 3 months. |

Reported Results |
| Benefits: | | It was able to supress my hunger enough to "get through" the tough times and not be so grumpy about it :) Simply, I was not STARVING all the time, and it made the weight loss bearable. It was not EASY, but it gave me the drive to keep going because I wasn't so miserable while doing it. I ate a 1200 calorie a day or less diet and exercised many times a week...so I would have lost weight anyway, but it just made it easier. |
| Side effects: | | Dry mouth, constipation at times, sometimes felt a bit like my heart raced under stress after taking it for a long time. |
| Comments: | | One tablet a day for about a year to help aid in weight loss. I have been able to keep it off give or take a few pounds, almost a year later. |

Reported Results |
| Benefits: | | Used for weight management and food intake control. It is also supposed to give energy. It definitely worked for cutting my appetite as long as I took it twice a day. If I took it once a day at about 8 am I would feel hungry at about 5pm. If I took it twice a day 8 am 10am I could make it to bedtime without being hungry. |
| Side effects: | | Side effects were random for me most of the times. I would definitely NOT feel the energy that it was supposed to give me. Sometimes when I would take it it would have the opposite affect on me and actually make me crash. On some days it would make me feel foggy and other days I'd feel crisp and clear. I also broke out with pimples on it. You have to remind yourself to eat. Some days I'd also have trouble falling a sleep. |
| Comments: | | I would take 1 30mg pill in the morning at about 8am and then another 30mg pill at about 10am (sometimes trouble falling asleep if taken later). I have done that for 2 months. At the beginning I started off with only 1 pill a day. I try to "self administer" my breaks in taking the medicine because I've heard it was addictive and I don't want to be addicted. |

| Benefits: | | I lost 40lbs the first time I took it in only 2 months and kept it off for 1 year. I gained 20lbs back after that. I'm taking it again now and loose back down to my normal weight, stop taking it and gain all the weight back plus some. I've done this three times now even with an extensive workout routine and very healthy eating habits. |
| Side effects: | | Major mood swings, dry mouth, insomnia, facial twitching and jitters. The first time I took it I had thoughts of suicide that I had never experienced before but I was taking more than prescribed...not recomended. |

| Benefits: | | Helped me concentrate, did help curb appetite, made me feel younger (more energy), thinking more clearly. |
| Side effects: | | Could not sleep - slept for maybe 4 hours a night, but even that was "light" sleep. Horrible headaches the morning after I took it until I took another one. Also had to keep my temper in check, had what seemed like mild "roid rage". I was also nauseated every morning when I woke up (not pregnant and don't drink). |
| Comments: | | 37.5 mg once per day. Went back in after a month to have blood pressure tested (my blood pressure has always been near perfect). It was high, so they weaned me off of the pills. |

| Benefits: | | The drug after an about an hour went into affect. I had more energy and felt the desire to "do things." During the day I did not think about food, and had no desire to eat. I felt good and didn't care about eating. It left you with a feeling of being happier too. |
| Side effects: | | It immediately "woke" you up. I had a hard time, going straight to sleep at night. I generally stayed awake about 2 hours later than I normally did. But in the morning I wasn't overly tired, and as soon as I took the next pill within 30 minutes I had no desire to go back to sleep. Also sometimes I would have a funny taste in my mouth. |
| Comments: | | Well their wasn't much treatment details. You take the pill first thing in the morning and drink a glass of water with it. It is an appetite suppressant. It also gave me more energy as well, giving me more incentive to exercise, work around my house, etc.... |

| Benefits: | | When BMI rating is over 27 its time to get that taken care of before it goes beyond that. I have taken adipex in my 20's and lost 30 pounds in 6 weeks. I keep it off until I turned 43. You have to exercise or this will not work. I am not a fan of exercising but when you get the burst of energy get up and move. If you are stuck behind a desk.. turn from side to side... do stretches.. then at lunch or break move!!! There are so many looking for the magical drug for weight loss but there is none. Exercise is the magical word.
So get up and move it. walk.. dance.. or you will be stuck at the same weight. It takes work.. and a lot of it. It amazes me how there are those expecting a miracle in a pill. Not that way at all but it is a aid to get to your goal |
| Side effects: | | jittery.. sometimes euphoric.. tired but cant sleep.. in a zone. |
| Comments: | | last results 3 months on adipex-p lost 30 pounds. Gained it back due to injury at work. Currently on day 5 and working out with the nintedo wii and walking. if I am sitting I am not doing so still .. i do leg lifts .. twist my hips practice good breathing patterns for everyday health. Its really beneficial to breath correctly. I am on a very low calorie intake diet. I eat 1200 to 1500 a day and it is not skipping a meal to eat ice cream.. no fat diet veggies.. fresh fruit and chicken . palm sized servings for everything.. extra no butter, fat, oils,
processed meats, dairy is low fat or fat free yogurt. Daily vitamin and lots and lots of water to replenish so you don't get fatigued. Im on my way.. 5 pounds down and 25 to go. Good luck this can work for most people with no excuses other then a underlying disease .. if so its obvious you shouldn't be taking adipex. Good luck all .. dont get weak. and if you mess up make sure its worth it.. that extra serving dont let it be more then a half cup and only if you can burn it off. Good Luck all and remember don't give up.. don't cheat yourself with extra licks from the brownie bowl.. tasting samples of dinner before serving. those are huge calories not counted for that can ruin your diet. Take care and get moving!! |
