ARGH! The Headaches

kwalker · 03-26-2006, 04:31 AM

Hi There! I have been taking 37.5 for about 10 days and the only side effect I am really dealing with is the killer headaches. I do not really notice a increase in heartrate or ringing in the ears so I do not think it is my blood pressure up. It is just this killer headache and mostly in the front part of my head. I am taking tyelnol or advil or whatever a couple of times a day for it. Maybe I am not drinking enough? This morning I actually woke up with it.
Anyone?????

I have always had headaches, but while on this med i drink a gallon of water a day so most of time its at bay but there are others when i have to take something so definetly try to drink a lot and see if that helps. :cool:

I had been the 37.5s for over four months and after experiencing the pounding, migraine like headaches I took myself off of them. I want and need to lose this weight, but not being able to function throughout the day just wasn't working for me. I took Motrin as often as I could, but it didn't seem to help.
Also, I drink close to 100oz of water a day, so dehydration can't be the blame and since I've been off (3 weeks now), I haven't had another headache.
Good luck. I know how it feels.

Well, what I did was eat breakfast and then carry bottle water with me all day. If I eat, the headaches are gone but it is when I find myself just working off of adreneline that I have those killer headaches.

Try phendimetrazine 3 tablets per day so you dont get the dose all at one time I think that is the root of it taking the ones that give it to you all at once.Phendimetrazine I suffered no headaches at all,and I lost the weight much faster.lots of energy without the consequences.

I hope you're not taking 3 full doses a day, maybe u meant you split the pill into threes. If you are taking 3 full doses a day, stop it now. You're going to hurt yourself maybe kill yourself.

Headaches are a side effect to this med. Like all meds with side effects they go away over time, in rare cases they don't. If so you're going to have to go with another weight loss drug.

I'm pretty knowledgeable on these meds I'm a RN that works with obese patients on these meds and numerous others if you would like a list of other weight lose drugs I can provide that for you.

Just a plug but the Hoodie phentermine works just as well sometime better. I have alot of patients on this med. Still has phentermine just a smaller dose. Hoodie is all natural.

There was a spelling error on that drug. It's hoodia
