User Reviews for Tenuate

I have been on Tenuate for three months and along with a healthy low carb diet, I have lost 22 pounds. I asked the Doctor for a prescription with little to no side effects. This medication has succeeded.

I went on this to help get a jump start on my weight loss. I have lost 34.2 pounds in 3 months and am so happy with the results. I can really tell that I have lost the weight. I have so much energy than before. I would recommend this to anyone that is seriously overweight. It's literally saving my life.

It's not true what they say about only taking it for a few weeks. I have been taking it for almost 2 years. I got off it for two months and I noticed I was hungrier. In fact I was so hungry I gained 7lbs those two months. Then I re-started the pill and lost the weight again. I lost a total of 90lbs and maintained them since starting the Tenuate and exercise. I eat the same foods but smaller portions and exercise 4-5 times a week. I am now slowly decreasing my strength but to be honest I'm afraid to be completely off it. Might be more of a mental thing. I never had any side effects and see my doctor every 3 months for a blood pressure check and every 6 months for blood work to make sure it hasn't affected my liver/kidneys. I would recommend this medication anytime.

I've been taking Tenuate for 6 months. I'm very pleased with results, I've dropped 4 dress sizes and 30lbs. One thing I've found to be the key to my success, is working out and making sure I eat enough calories. I only want to lose 17lbs more pounds and I'm keeping "the faith", that I will accomplish my goal.

I just started tenuate 25mg today. I am hopeful that it will work for me since I have had no luck with a few other medicines. I'm a little concerned that I might experience some scary side effects. I'm frustrated because I've been doing 60 minutes of cardio 4 times a week, eat low gylcemic, and haven't lost any weight in over a month. If this medication doesn't work, then I will soon be out of options.

I did very well taking Tenuate and lost over 50 lbs. It gave me more energy to exercise, less of an appetite, and generally more hope to get my weight regulated. I didn't experience any negative side effects. However, when I stopped taking the pills, I slowly put the weight back on. Almost all of it. It's devastating. I don't think it should be a short-term solution.

I was 155 pounds when I started taking Tenuate 75mg. I know it may not sound like a lot of weight to the average overweight person but I'm only 4"11 in height, so its a lot. I lost 32 pounds and went down to 123 in two and 1/2 months. I've been off Tenuate for a little over four months and have gained 10 pounds back. It's been entirely my fault for gaining it back. I have had no self control at all and have done no exercise at all. I'm lucky that its only 10 pounds and not more. Bottom line, these are great pills for weight loss but once off them you really need to put your part to keep it off. Maybe after a month of being completely off them, you should take an over the counter appetite suppressant to help slowly curb cravings and hunger.

Amazing, I have been taking only 50 mg of this for 8 weeks. I have lost 31 lbs 3 sizes, I don't feel racey or speedy or weird, I feel good, if I miss a dose I don't feel it. Missed it for 4 days and didn't gain any weight. I am also eating really well and exercising! I recommend this if you have tried other things and they haven't been successful. I am a 31 year old mother of 5. Nothing else worked this is my miracle!

I have been taking 25 mg Tenuate for almost 3 weeks and I am gradually losing weight. So far lost 8 lbs. My physician prescribed a water pill. I am definitely watching what I eat and making better food choices when I do eat, i.e. low in fat and lots of veggies. I have absolutely no side effects and I can easily sleep at night. So far so good.

I have been using Tenuate 75mg for 4 months along with a modified high protein/low fat diet substituting 2 meals a day with a protein shake. I have lost 41 lbs and gone from a size 20W to a size 14! I am very happy with my weight loss and how this drug makes me feel! I have no jitters or racing heart and can tell a difference if I forget to take it. On days I forget I feel like I'm searching for something to put in my mouth and have to make a truly conscious effort to drink more water and not succumb to my cravings/urges to eat anything and everything! Days when I take it I almost never think about eating and have to use the alarms set on my blackberry to remind me to eat every 4 hours! I have a lot more energy and no trouble sleeping.

I have been taking the 75mg for 2 months now. I have lost 43lbs so far. I can't believe how much it helps with my hunger. Before I would be hungry all day, and I would eat all day. Now I stick with a 1000 calorie diet, and I make sure I eat breakfast, and all my meals are much smaller portions. There are even days I skip a dose, and I wouldn't even know it. I would recommend it for anyone who has fought with their weight over the years. After only 2 months I have been able to stop taking my blood pressure medicine.

I have been on Tenuate for 3 months now and have lost 33 pounds, and I couldn't be happier. Though there is a lot of hard work involved in exercising and making sure to eat right, but I would recommend Tenuate to anyone who needs to lose a significant amount of weight.

Today is my third day on Tenuate. I am taking the 75 mg once per day and have found that it works really well when I take it on an empty stomach with a FULL glass of water. I lost about 30 lbs on my own and then got stuck because I could not overcome being hungry all the time. So I went to a weight loss clinic and was prescribed this pill. In the last three days, I have had so much energy, no problems sleeping and my appetite has decreased enough that I can stick to my 1100 calories per day with no problem. I am already down 8 lbs. I know I won't lose like this every week, but it is nice to be out of the rut I was in!

I have been taking Tenuate for about 3 weeks now and I have lost 10 lbs so far. That was without watching my diet too much and little to no exercise. I asked the doctor to put me on something to help because I might have to have back surgery. I can't do a lot of cardio aside from walking. He put me on this and I've been feeling so much better. I sleep great, no side effects aside from dry mouth and I do get dizzy quite a bit. Definitely makes me not want to eat. In fact if I go to eat something an hour or so after taking it I feel like I'll get sick if I keep eating. I know it trigger's nerve's in your brain so everyone's reaction will be a little bit different. I don't feel like I'm over energized or "spacey". 20 lbs to go!

I have tried and failed so many times to lose weight with low calorie and exercise. I went to a weight loss clinic and they gave me tenuate. I'm always so worried about weird side effects but I'm happy I don't have any with tenuate. I have so much energy and painted almost my whole house in two days. I'm on 75 mg, and have to force myself to eat that's never happened before. It's 2 weeks and 5 lbs off. I'm hopeful. Please post more success stories.

I have been taking Tenuate 75mg once a day for a week, I've lost 7lbs, I have experienced dry mouth but I can definitely live with that. Infact I almost feel sick in the morning if I don't drink 16oz of water between 6am and 9am. I still get hungry but I get full faster. I keep a bag of organic almonds in my desk and eat 6 to 10 almonds when I get hungry and that takes care of that problem. This is the first weight loss pill I've ever taken and I am pleased with it. 40lbs to go, I hope to reach my goal in 4 months, this first 7lbs was with only 2 days of exercise and eating semihealthy.

I'm very pleased with Tenuate. It has changed my body completely. I have more energy and my body has stopped aching. I had back pain and knee pain almost every day. Since I started in February of this year I weighed 206 and am size 16. Now I am 164 and a size 10. I'm very happy yet fearful if what its going to be like when I stop taking it or will this be a life long struggle. To keep the weight off.

I LOVE TENUATE. IT'S A DREAM PILL. Nothing else worked, but this is amazing. I feel SO much better than I have before, and I've been on it for 3 weeks now, and have lost 13 pounds. You just don't think about food as much, and it's amazing how quickly you get full. I can't believe it took me this long to find it.

I have been using Tenuate 25mg ONCE a day. I am on day 6 and I have lost 9 lbs. The only thing that I have noticed is that I sweat a lot. I have no other complaints. No jitters, headache, etc. I have tried Adipex in the past and had nasty side effects. This medication is awesome for anyone who has low tolerance for medicines. I'll keep you posted.

I have been taking Tenuate 25mg three times a day for three weeks now and I have lost a total of 8 1/2 lbs. I eat smaller portions of food and watch what I eat and don't eat after 6:00 pm. I drink a lot of water and now my doctor started me on a diuretic to help me get rid of my water weight. So far this medication has helped and I am looking to see more results and I will keep you posted. Good luck to everyone.

I have been taking this medicine for 2 1/5 months and have lost 3 inches and 17lbs and I feel a whole lot better and have more energy. Also, walking twice a day at 6 am and 6:30 pm for 2 miles each session. I have cut my food portions in half and I want to be losing more but, I am happy to be making the progress I am making. I had to increase my fiber because the medicine made me constipated. I do drink 10-12 glasses of water daily and that does helps some. I would love to read other posts on their progress that are recent this year. I will keep you updated.

I've been taking Tenuate for a few days. When I take it in the morning, I start to feel sweaty and shaky about 45 minutes later, but if I eat half a bowl of cereal and put my hair in a ponytail, then I am fine. The rest of the day when I take it, it does curb my appetite, but I still get hungry and I still like the taste of my favorite foods so I'll continue to eat after I'm full. I hope to see a difference soon. Maybe its due to my hypoglycemia. I get really shaky anyway if I don't eat on time.

I have been taking this medication for almost a week, and I noticed immediately that the hunger decreased. I find myself hardly hungry, and when I do eat, I notice that I am full alot quicker. So full to the point of getting sick with another bite. Lunch time seems the meal where I can eat the most, but still that is hardly anything.

I've been taking this medication for three and a half weeks and I lost 8 lbs. My goal is to lose 50 lbs and I hope the medication works. I will keep you updated.

Unbelievable! I have lost 20 pounds in 47 days. I went from a large size 12 to a size 10. There was a time when the weight stayed the same for 2 weeks, but after that, it started to fall off again...so don't give up! I am so much happier than I've been in a LONG time!
