I was prescribed Phentermine 15 mg capsules....on the bottle it says Phentermine generic for Phentermine HCL...I have never taken a med of this type & I am kinda scared... Can anyone help me with what it contains and if there are any really bad side effects and is it slow release? I need to lose 30 lbs. ## Hello, Dawn! How are you? Phentermine is the active ingredient, it is used to aid in weight loss. The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness and insomnia. And no, it is a regular release medication. Can anyone that's taken it chime in with their experience? ## Dawn, Well, it's been several years since your post, so you prob have it figured out by now. But, i'll write anyway....

Will phentermine cause carafate to not work ## Hello, Tangie! How are you? No, I didn't find any interactions or problems listed between these two medications, but it's always best to double check to be sure. The FDA classifies Phentermine as a stimulant that is most commonly used to aid in weight loss. It carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness, insomnia and anorexia. Carafate is used to treat stomach ulcers.

diet pills ## Are these 2 seperate drugs or both combined for a single pill? There is info for Traimterene and Phentermine seperately, not sure if they are ever combined into a single pill though. Jake ## Jacob is correct, these are not available in a single tablet, but they are available separately, via prescription. The FDA warns that Phentermine is a stimulant, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia, and anorexia. Triamterene is listed as possibly causing side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension. Are there any other questions?

Hi everyone. I'm new to phentermine (today will be the 4th half of a 37.5 MG pill) and I must say it's giving me some energy. I've had a couple palpitations but nothing horrible. I've got weird back pain, like in the kidney area bilateral sides of my back. It's not constant and usually occurs in the morning. I certainly don't want kidney problems but didn't really see that listed in side effects. Just checking to see if anyone else may have had it and whether you stopped the medication? ## I didn't see anything listed about Phentermine causing any kidney issues, either, typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, anorexia, insomnia, frequent urination, and elevated blood pressure. However, it is always best to consult your doctor to be s...

May I take these together (phentermine, topamax, contrave)? They were prescribed for weight loss. ## Has your doctor instructed you take them all at once? That would be very unusual. In most cases, as reported by the FDA, taking all of these at once, could result in elevated blood pressure, elevated heart rate, severe insomnia nervousness, anxiety, and anorexia, any of which could be fatal.

I was told I could take Norex (anfepramona) 50mg along with Acxion (fentermina) 30mg together. Has anyone taken these two together & if so when is the best time & with food or after food? Together at the same time or an hour apart?

They are normally taken before a meal, but you should follow the prescribing advice. Are you on any other medications? ## Hi I am taking both and have lost 10 lbs in a month I take acxion in the morning when I wake up before any food then I have breakfast Then around 12 before my lunch I take ifanorex.

I take Verapamil for high blood pressure and was recently prescribed Phentermine. Are they safe to take together? ## There is nothing listed against using them together, however, your doctor should be keeping a close eye on your blood pressure while you are using the Phentermine, since it is an Amephetamine class medication and can cause blood pressure issues for some people. Side effects can include: nausea, irritability, headache and insomnia. Have these both been prescribed by the same doctor? ## So I was on Phentermine since the end of October and had to stop taking it because my blood pressure went up. I still had half a bottle and a refill gone to waste. Has anyone else experienced this? So bummed.

The Phentermine 30 mg is not working as well as it use to.

It can cause some serious side effects that can worse and become more dangerous at higher dosages, this can include: nausea, irritability, insomnia and elevated heart rate and blood pressure.

Has anyone that is currently prescribed Sertraline had any issues when taking Phentermine? Are there interactions between the two? ## Not a good idea . Zoloft is a leveler which pulls you down . Adderall is not the same thing as phentermine and should never be compared as such . ## A drug called Effexor or other anti depressant is often paired with any type of Behavior RX as combining bupropion with instead of a flattening drug like Zoloft/Sertraline can produce painful behaviors for the patient ## Sertraline, and Phentermine tend to increase the effects of each other, which may more severe side effects than usual, such as insomnia, nervousness, headache, and irritability. This combination could reach toxic levels, so it is generally best to avoid prescribing these medications together....

I've been taking phentermine for a couple years now and it has worked great, but now it seems to be losing its effectiveness. Yesterday I bought a dietary supplement that contains coconut oil and green coffee. I bought it to take with the phentermine. Is that safe? ## You should check with your doctor, before taking this with Phentermine, since the green coffee may contain some caffeine, and could act as a stimulant, thus coupled with the Phentermine, it could be too much, and could cause nervousness, shakiness, insomnia, anorexia, jitters, and seizures. Has anything else changed in your lifestyle, such as your diet, or exercise regimen? Are you on any other medications?

This is my second day taking Acxion. It is 1:39 am and I can't sleep. Is this a side effect or something else?

Ref: Phentermine Information Combining with anything caffeinated can worsen the effect. Is there anything else I can help with?
