"I have been on Bontril for quite a few months now and have lost 30+ pounds. It's been very stubborn but has come off slowly. I don't eat much anymore and it takes very little to fill me up. My energy levels are about the same, and occasionally I will have insomnia. I wish I knew what to do to make it come off faster. I exercise and drink lots of water. I get weighed in every other week and have always lost weight, it's just only a pound here or there. But I have to say this is the only product that I've actually lost weight on, so I'm just thankful for that even if it's slow. Overall, I'm just thankful I'm losing weight. I'm a 5'8 240-pound female."

"I am 5'6" and was 190 lbs. when I started this medicine. I began taking this medication 3 weeks ago as part of the Doctor G's Weight Loss Program. At the end of 2 weeks, I was down 9 pounds. I don't get weighed again until Week 4. I have not been hungry at all. I am only taking half the recommended dose because I truly believe that taking medication is never healthy. However, I am in the military and need to lose weight for this year's waist measurement. A hysterectomy has really screwed things up for me."

"I have used Bontril for about 2 weeks right now, and WOW! I went by the diet that my wonderful doctor gave me, and even without exercise, I have already lost 23-25 pounds! I am severely overweight, so I know these results aren't typical, but when you weigh over 300 pounds, every little bit makes a big difference! The only major side effect I have had is a few heart tremors. Once you get in the mindset that you don't need a snack cake or pastry in your mouth every few minutes, then you can feel good not only about your weight loss but also about the great choices you are making!"

"I have been using Bontril for 7.5 weeks with only a 6 lb weight loss following a great diet of protein, fruits, and vegetables. I just phoned my physician's office and informed them that I plan on taking myself off of the medication secondary to severe constipation, headaches, insomnia, fatigue, and frequent urination. I have been off the medication for 5 days and feel so much better. I didn't realize the potential cardiac complications until today. Oh well, live and learn! Good luck to all!!"

"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."
