Phentermine is a prescription that should be taken by those who want to lose weight, but who are not under stress from other diseases or conditions that require additional medication. Phentermine can produce side effects in some patients, while in others no side effects will be prevalent or noticed at all. This medication is one that should never be taken by children under the age of eighteen, as the effects of the growing child, and their bodies have not been studied.
Take this medication in the morning, before you are getting ready to eat anything for the day. If you forget to take your medication, take it, and then start your schedule over. Never take more than one dose of Phentermine at a time. Avoid taking Phentermine late at night because for some people, it can leave you feeling restless and unable to sleep. If you find that you are not able to sleep while taking Phentermine, do not take this medication about six hours before you are going to plan on going to bed for the night.
Some users will notice some side effects more than others, and some users will experience all of these side effects. As with any medication, there will be people who are allergic to the ingredients combined that make Phentermine, and if you find you are having an allergic reaction, consult your local emergency room for the best treatment and advice for your personal needs.
Among the most common side effects of the use of Phentermine include sleeplessness, nervousness, irritability, and some other side effects include dry mouth, stomach pains, an upset stomach or constipation. These are minor side effects, and most often will disappear or dissipate within the first three days of using this medication.
If you find you are feeling anything that you can't control, such as your blood pressure, racing heart or similar side effects, you may have an underlying medical condition that you were not aware of and should see medical attention. Some underlying medical conditions include heart problems, high blood pressure, diabetes, thyroid problems and mental or emotional instability.
