like how long it takes to get out of your system after 8 months, i stopped it cold turkey cause my blood pressure was so high, today its hanging around 190/110 or so ... i have been off the phentermine since Tuesday and its Saturday now.

How do you feel? I have heard some get off slowly but surely..like just taking one every couple days...or skip days..

when taking phentermine your supposed to take it (for example) If your doctor prescibes you it for 2months, take it for the month then off for a week, and then go back on it, only bc It does affect the CNS and your body will get used to it and then your body wont function on its own. i believe I read something bout it desensitizes nerves and stuff. And I believe your not supposed to be on Phentermine that long. (8months)Well I dont know what doctor will recomend that. If you have any chest/ breathing issues or pains Id go to the hospital (if you have insurance) or doctors office and get an Ekg and checked up.
Dont ever skip medicine. and the way to reduce it is last week or so you take half till your done. And lots of water.

Good Luck !!!
