What are common phentermine problems?
Phentermine is one of the best known appetite suppressant drugs available today.
Appetite suppressant drugs control appetite by tricking the brain into thinking the body is full. This in turn has the effect of reducing weight through a reduced calorie intake.
So, what does phentermine do?
The substance known as phentermine works on a part of the brain specifically the basal part of the diencephalon governing autonomic nervous system to release a neuro-transmitter that signals a message that reduces the feeling of hunger.
Phentermine also breaks down fat.
Does phentermine work?
People who use this type of weight loss aid can have varying results. This may also be the case when it comes to using phentermine .
As with most supplements and diets, until you see if it’s for you, it’s difficult to know if it is effective. This can be the case with almost anything in life! You need to see some things for yourself! Sometimes the outcome is invariably unique to the individual.
If they should appear, the same can be applied to phentermine side effects.
Dosage of phentermine
Phentermine appetite suppressant is available in tablets and in long release capsules. Phentermine dosage usually consists of a single daily dose in the morning or three times a day 30 minutes before meals. A large part of patients who are under treatment with phentermine take it during between three and six weeks, however, as with anything, this can vary depending on response.
Is taking phentermine safe?
On the whole, phentermine seems very well tolerated. But, some phentermine side effects have been noted. These effects have included increased heart rate and elevated blood pressure.
Another down side is that phentermine can become habit forming. Also other associated phentermine problems can arise on larger doses.
Taking phentermine before meals has been known to reduce the side effects in some people. There are some tablets that can be crushed and mixed with food, but if taking an extended-release tablet, it should not be chewed or crushed..
Possible dangers
People who take ongoing medication should always be wary of taking any medication not prescribed by their doctor or physician, without consulting with them first. And more so where medication/phentermine interactions may occur.
