I've been reading the scripts to this forum and have found them to be very helpful. I've been taking phentermine on and off for 45 days and have had little success.

I take the drug every other day because the side effects are so extreme. Is there anything that I can do to lessen the effects? I've experienced them ALL!

Thanks for any advice that you can give!!

Phentermine is not for everyone. 45 days on and off and not much to show and all the side effects may mean that you might not be a good match for this drug. I hope that you'll be cautious. Welcome to the forum!

What have you changed in your lifestyle since you started taking it. I have only lost like 7 pounds in about a month. It is a lot less than some of the people here but I have tried not to change to much so once I loose it all I don't gain it back right away.

You do have to change the way you eat and excercise. If you don't do those two things the drug will have little effect. You have to see it as a tool to eat less ONLY. Which is what most of us do. I noticed that when I take it I can only eat small portions and when I would usually serve myself a second time I don't do it anymore.

Are you drinking plenty of water? Also I do notice that when I don't take it the day I start taking it again I experience the side effects. Like headaches mostly. But they go away after a day.

What exactly are you experiencing?
