Adipex-P

Adipex (phentermine) is an appetite suppressant that makes it possible for you to eat less without suffering from food cravings. It’s efficient only if combined with a healthier diet and regular exercise. Some of Adipex side effects can impair your thinking and reactions. Make sure you avoid drinking alcohol (as it can worsen some side effects) and never get engaged into any activity that requires you to be alert and concentrated. If you stop taking Adipex suddenly after using it for a long period of time, the following withdrawal symptoms are possible: extreme tiredness and depression. Consult your health care provider and he will most probably recommend gradual withdrawal to avoid the symptoms mentioned. If you used a MAO inhibitor within the past 2 weeks, make sure your doctor is aware of that fact. If you have recently taken isocarboxazid, phenelzine, selegiline, rasagiline, or tranylcypromine, you may need to wait for some time until you can start the treatment. The following medical conditions must be reported to your doctor in advance to make sure you are prescribed the lowest efficient dose: anxiety disorder, heart disease, diabetes, arteriosclerosis, glaucoma, overactive thyroid or some other thyroid disorder, seizure disorder, and a history of drug or alcohol abuse. Always take this medicine as directed – usually 10-14 hours before going to be, before breakfast. Taking Adipex before going to bed can cause insomnia. Never exceed the dose recommended as you can experience confusion, rapid breathing, hallucinations, restlessness, tremors, confusion, irregular heartbeat, hallucinations, seizure, fainting, vomiting, aggressiveness, nausea, light-headedness, stomach pain, and diarrhea. The overdose symptoms mentioned must be reported to your health care provider as soon as possible. Mild and more serious side effects are possible. Mild side effects that are not expected to get more serious include trouble sleeping, constipation, dry mouth, nervousness, itching, headache, unpleasant taste in your mouth, feeling anxious, dizziness, tremors, and diarrhea. There is no need to report them unless they get bothersome. Make sure you call your doctor if you develop shortness of breath, buzzing in the ears, blurred vision, rapid weight gain, swelling, confusion, fast heartbeat, high blood pressure, seizure, chest pain, uneven heartbeats, and unusual thoughts or behavior, as these are considered to be serious side effects that require special treatment. They may also prevent you from taking Adipex. The following medications are supposed to be reported to your doctor if you intend to take them while on Adipex: fluoxetine, paroxetine, vitamins, MAO inhibitors, insulin, fluvoxamine, sertraline, medications for weight loss and depression, and guanethidine. There are other drugs that can cause interference with this medicine. Make sure you mention them as well – that way your treatment will be as efficient as possible.
