Phentermine And Heart Flutters

I took this in the past and recently started back up. Been on it about 5 days now and last night started experiencing heart "flutters". I have had issues with this in the past and take atenolol for that but since I started back on the phentermine, been having them again. Is this a normal reaction to phentermine? I take 30mg and take it in the morning.

Yes, this medication is basically a stimulant, so it can cause elevated heart rate, elevated blood pressure, both of which may cause palpitations, according to FDA reports. It also carries the risk of being habit forming.

If you have some type of heart issue, it may not be safe for you to take this medication.

Was it prescribed by your PCP? Have you consulted a cardiologist?

I have congestive heart failure and am not allowed to take any stimulant medications.
