Phendimetrazine for Weightloss

Phendimetrazine is used together with diet and exercise to treat obesity in people with risk factors, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or diabetes. Taking Phendimetrazine initially to kickstart a new lifestyle for a severely overweight individual has been proven more beneficial than diet and exercise alone.

What is Phendimetrazine?

Phendimetrazine is a fast-acting prescription medication that can aid in short-term weight loss for certain patients. When paired with Phentermine, it is an excellent solution for curbing nighttime cravings and overeating. Many patients looking to jumpstart their weight loss journey have found relief by using Phendimetrazine in combination with a healthy diet and exercise regimen.

How should I take Phendimetrazine?

Take exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not take larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended. Follow the directions on your prescription label. Phendimetrazine is usually taken once daily. Talk with your doctor if you experience increased hunger or if you think the medication is not working properly. Taking more of this medication will not make it more effective and can cause serious life-threatening side effects.

Phendimetrazine should be taken as prescribed by your physician. Tell your doctor if you have not lost 4 lbs. after 4 weeks of treatment. Do not stop using Phendimetrazine suddenly after long-term use or you could have unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. Ask your doctor how to avoid withdrawal symptoms when you stop using this medicine. Phendimetrazine stimulates the central nervous system (nerves and brain), which increases your heart rate and blood pressure and decreases your appetite.

What happens if I miss a dose?

Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. Skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose. A dose taken too late in the evening may cause insomnia.
