Why Wouldn T Dr S Who Prescribe Phendimetrazine Also Have A Follow Up Medication To Help To Ween Off Of This Highly Addictive Drug (Top voted first)

It seems Dr.'s know all to well about the addiction of the magical weight loss medication PHENDIMETRAZINE. Why in the world wouldn't ANY DOCTORS have a follow up medication AFTER the weight comes off? You will gain the weight back at SUPER SPEED as soon as you stop taking it. And BYE BYE energy-plan to fall on your face-not to mention your new MENTAL problem HELLO DEPRESSION. Looks like I will be taking PHENDIMETRAZINE for the rest of my living life.

Hello, KimmyChoo! How are you?

Have you talked to your doctor about the problem?

A medication such as this is generally only used for a short period of time, to boost the initial weight loss, which is supposed to be maintained through diet and exercise.

Have you tried tapering, rather than stoop it abruptly?

I am working on that as we speak. So far not a problem cutting back- and no- haven't tried doing this before. Hopefully this weening will do the trick. I will keep you posted on my success. When I tried stopping cold turkey in the past My body changed by the 2 bad day- I asked the Dr. If this medication causes a thyroid problem, he said no. Whatever this medication does to the metabolism ( and I am always like a furnace while everyone else is freezing) I believe has something to do with the rapid weight gain when you stop them. It's like the body holds on to EVERYTHING you put into your mouth. I can eat the same amount on this medication and not gain a pound. So it seems the constant stimulants in the medication keep your metabolism at a high level and when you stop taking them I believe the body goes into shock and doesn't remember how to function without them. I also know these have a MENTAL addiction. Here is what else they do for me... Block all painful thoughts... Make you feel like king of the world, have a happy carnival tune circus like in even the worst of times. I can go on and on
