    Great Answer

    Professionally Researched. (What's this?)

    Phentermine acts as a weight-loss supplement that decreases appetite and is used in combination with diet and exercise to treat obesity. The brand names are Pro-fast, Ionamin, Adipex-D. It's only available by a doctor's prescription.

    How it should be used

    Phentermine comes in an extended-release oral tablet. It's taken once a day one hour before breakfast or 1 to 2 hours after breakfast. Most people use this medication for 3 to 6 weeks as it can be addictive.

    Common side effects

    Common side effects include dry mouth, constipation, vomiting, diarrhea, nervousness, trouble sleeping and unpleasant taste. Tell your doctor if you experience high blood pressure.

    Infrequent side effects

    Less reported symptoms include drowsiness, dizziness, head pain and blurred vision. Alert your doctor if hives, rash or allergic inflammation or reaction occurs.

    Rare side effects

    Call a doctor immediately if these rare but serious side effects occur, including depression, confusion, tremors, shortness of breath, chest pain, hallucinations and personality changes. These may be a sign of overdose.

    Precautions

    Alcohol increases drowsiness, so take precautions while driving or operating machinery. Alert your doctor if you are allergic to any drugs, have heart disease, high blood pressure, glaucoma or diabetes. Tell your doctor if you're taking other weight loss drugs, depression medication, or if you're pregnant or may become pregnant or are currently breast feeding.
