For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I have been taking them for a little over two months and I have lost 30 pounds. It works great for me. I have also been on a simple diet and overall I rate it great. I got my mom and aunt to go and get their prescription and they have lost weight too. I'm so happy with phendimetrazine."

Phendiet (phendimetrazine) for Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I have been using this drug for 1 month, and I have lost 11 pounds so far. I still have 20lbs to go. I had been exercising 6 days a week, for at least 2 horus a day, with lots of cardio, and the weight wouldn't come off, until I started on the Phendiet. Since starting, I reduced my exercise to weight lifting and swimming 1.5 hours a day. My only concern is feeling like my blood pressure drops and like I need iron. I meet with my doctor every 2 weeks."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Warning I have been doing phendimetrazine for over 3 years. It’s not easy to get off of it. Once I stop I gain weight like crazy, lose all energy, and become depressed. Take only as prescribed. If you take more than you are supposed to, you will need many more a day in order to get it to work. You will have friends go to the doctor so that they give you their script too. Running out of pills before it’s time to renew your script will be a nightmare. These pills give you incredible amounts of energy, a euphoric feeling, you are never hungry, you will lose weight! But beware…. It’s NOT EASY TO STOP THEM, and if you do…. The energy level will dissipate and the weight will come back on."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I am 25 years old, 5'9 and WAS 186 pounds. I am a full-time student and makes me much less active than normal. I have done little exercise and have lost 15 pounds in 6 weeks! Medication is great, I don't even have to drink coffee, and I forget to eat because my appetite just disappears. Once the medication kicks in and makes me lose the cravings, it's also much easier to eat well when I'm not taking it. I have saved hundreds of dollars on impulse food alone! My doctor was reluctant to prescribe it because he treats a lot of people who are much older, and SEVERELY obese, and by comparison I didn't have much of a problem. I wanted to feel healthier and reach my goal of being 150lbs, and I am very healthy to begin with so why not?"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "This is an amazing diet pill. I weighed almost 150lbs and after I finished taking them I weighed an amazing 109lbs. Wow, never thought I would be so small again. That was with exercising 5 days a week and eating heathy."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "My starting weight was 213 - three days later I'm at 208. I take 35mg a day. Supposed to take 2 a day but want to wait to see how I react to the medicine. So far I feel okay. I get thirsty a lot and have trouble sleeping but other than that I'm okay."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "This is the first time I've taken a diet pill that didn't leave me jittery or with balloon-head syndrome. I went grocery shopping about an hour after I took a dose. It was the first time in years that I only bought what was on my list."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I have been taking Bontril for 3 months and have lost over 17 pounds, which is only 3 pounds from my goal. The only side effects I have felt is some constipation and a slight increase in headaches. I'm starting to wean myself off of the pills now and have found no increase in my appetite. This medication worked great for me!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Started taking phendimetrazine last Tuesday opted to be part of a study that a friend of mine told me about. I'm 5'9, 144lbs - by no means overweight. Yet, I was trying to shed just 10-15lbs to get back down to the weight I once loved and felt my best at. 2 a day an hour before meals. First day it suppressed my appetite and I was more than a little surprised - thought I hit the jackpot, as I am the queen of snacking throughout the day. 2nd and 3rd day didn't work as well as the first, 4th and 5th day worked good again. Now I'm on my 7th day and today it hardly worked. Not sure what all the back and forth is about because I haven't done anything different. I will say that I've dropped 4lbs in the past week, but I'm also taking water pills."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Just starting a weight loss program containing the medication combined with a once a week B12 shot, this is my first day taking the pill and I'm still as hungry as I was yesterday before I took it. Maybe I have to give it a few more days."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Years ago I took Phendimetrazine 105 mg at 10 am and 35 mg. at 3:00. I lost 15 lbs the first week and 10 lbs the following week. I thought I didn't have to exercise and I sometimes would forget to take it. I also thought I didn't have to eat - the less I ate the more weight I would lose. So by the 3rd month, I wasn't losing it as quickly as I thought I should so I eventually quit taking it. I have decided to go back on it and started today. The weightloss doctor told me not to eat sugar or fried foods, keep my calories at 1,200 a day, eat 3 meals a day and exercise 3 times a week and it's okay to splurge and eat one big meal a week. I'm going to try to stick to it this time!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "This is actually my first week on this medicine, and I love it already. It really does give you tons of energy. I am on a very strict diet from a weight management doctor and I am doing awesome! I would recommend this medicine to anyone. Another major thing is that you don't particularly care to eat. I am eating only protein this first week- 10 oz. a day- that's it. Believe it or not I can not even eat 10 oz even though I try. It does work well!"

Bontril PDM (phendimetrazine) for Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Was on Adipex for an extended period of time to a point it stopped working. The doctor switched me to Bontril. I did not get any additional energy from this medication and it minimally suppressed my appetite. I have not gained any additional weight in the three months I have been on it, but it has not been effective for me."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I am 6'3" and weighed 220 when I started. I have been taking this medicine for 5 weeks and have lost 21 pounds and have four to go to reach my goal. The only side effect I had was a couple of bouts of dizziness, but they would only last for 30 seconds or so. I have more energy to go to the gym and actually miss going if I can't make it that day. The cravings were bad for about a week, but then just disappeared. Now I look at chocolate at the grocery store and have no desire to eat it."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Ok, I hit my one month mark as of today, I have lost 10 pounds, with very little effort. This medication is amazing. I am still not having any negative side effects, and my cravings and hunger are a thing of the past. This stuff is great! I am at 163.5lbs now, so I have about 30 more pounds to go, hopefully I can keep the 10 pounds a month fade going, then I can get off the medicine and continue eating healthy small meals. I hope everyone is having the same success! Best of luck."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I am female 48 years old, healthy except for being over weight. I have tried every diet possible with little success. Been the the doctor and my thyroid is working well. I was working out 5 days a week (P90X lost inches but no weight) and still with little to show for all my hard work. I started 1 1/2 weeks ago on 105mg and lost 8 lbs. I am eating approximately 100 calories for breakfast, <300 cal frozen diner and a banana for lunch and at dinner I am eating half the amount that I usually eat. My plan is part doctor prescribed and part learning portion control. My problem is not quality of food but quantity. I have heard that your brain gets used to the medicine and should take a week off every 2 weeks. I start exercising next week."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I have taken Bontril on and off for 5 years now. A year on, a year off. I would actually get up to one 105 mg a day, plus 3-35mg tabs each day. I am 49 years old. I have always had very good blood pressure/even a little on the low side. My last experience with Bontril has not been good. My blood pressure has shot up to 152/104.....when I would have 110/70 readings. I have tried to cut back on the dosage to no avail. I will have to go off it completely. I'm disappointed, because I do think it is a great medicine to manage your weight. I guess the moral to this story is you eventually will reach a point where your body can no longer tolerate it. I Guess Weight Watchers is my next step."

Bontril Slow Release (phendimetrazine) "I have not noticed any effect from Bontril at all. No side effects, no reduction of hunger, no energy. It's as if I never even took anything. I have lost a couple of pounds but that is because I am eating very healthy and really cutting back but I am starving all the time. I'm not sure I will be able to make it this way."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Today is my first day taking phendimetrazine 35 mg. I was taking phentermine 37.5 mg before, phentermine helped me lose 15 pounds in less than a month but then it stopped helping suppress my appetite so the doctor told me to take phendimetrazine along with the phentermine. So I am supposed to take 1 pill of phentermine in the morning before noon and then take phendimetrazine in the afternoon around 4 or 5 p.m. I haven't had any food cravings as of yet. I do feel very energetic. I had a headache earlier in the day but that was because I hadn't eaten anything. "

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I started take this medication on 4/6/10 and have so far as of today have lost 10 lbs...I love it. For the first time I did experience the heart palpitations, which scared me a little bit. The next day they were gone. I would recommend this medication to anyone. My goal is to lose 50lbs and I will agree my focus is great and I have not experienced any jitters or problems falling asleep. My doctor has me taking the medicines on a time schedule, which is at 1pm, then 4pm and last at 7pm with a B12 shot every 2 weeks. I have experienced dry mouth but I just upped my water intake since I am not a big fan of water. I do not eat any high calorie foods at all. I only eat chicken breast (deli) about 3 slices with some veges and have water."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I went to a diet clinic today and my doctorr put me on phendimetrazine 105mg. I take it at 10 am then at 3 pm I take the 35mg phendimetrazine. On Monday, Wednesday and Friday I take hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg (water pill). I weighed 235lbs, BIGGEST I'VE EVER BEEN, when I started my job in February. This morning when I took my 1st pill it didn't take very long at all to kick in! I had a headache this evening but I lay down and took a 30 minute nap and it went away! So far so good. Only bad thing is I have to work tomorrow and it's 2:26 am already."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Day one on this medication....had taken phentermine before, gotten to goal weight, then thought I could maintain on my own, with exercise etc. Had some winter weight gain and getting started again. My doctor asked if I wanted to try something new. At first made me a little light headed, but better as the day went on. Problem is now, I have to be up in a couple of hours and can't go to sleep!..Hoping this goes away soon. Tomorrow will take it a little earlier in the day."
