Phentermine (Adipex-P, Ionamin) is a prescription medication used to curb appetite.
It is recommended for people who are seriously overweight, not those who simply want to lose a few pounds.
There are only a few long-term studies on phentermine,and it is only approved only for use for just a few weeks.
This means that if any weight was lost while taking this drug, the weight will likely be gained back.
Side effects:
blurred vision
dry mouth
sleeplessness
irritability
constipation
increase in heart rate
increase in blood pressure
If you choose to use phentermine, it should be combined with a nutrition, exercise and healthy lifestyle program.
