Phentermine suppresses the appetite, but it’s a stimulant like amphetamines. For this reason, it’s only used at the lowest effective dose for a few weeks in people with significant weight problems. Eating a well-balanced, reduced-calorie diet and exercising regularly are the cornerstones of weight loss, but certain drugs can provide powerful support.
It has been proven effective for short-term weight loss when used alongside a reduced-calorie diet and exercise. Phentermine HCL medication is a schedule IV (four) controlled substance. This means it has an accepted medical use, but also has a risk of misuse and dependence. With misuse, a drug is taken in a way or for a use that’s not prescribed. Dependence can be physical or psychological. With physical dependence, your body relies on a drug to function as it typically does. With psychological dependence, it is hard to stop taking a drug. Drugs that can cause psychological dependence are also described as being addictive.
Tolerance to the anorexiant effects of phentermine hcl usually develops within a few weeks of starting therapy. The mechanism of tolerance appears to be pharmacodynamic in nature; higher doses of phentermine are required to produce the same response. When tolerance develops to the anorexiant effects, it is generally recommended that phentermine be discontinued rather than the dose increased. When taking phentermine drug, avoid other weight loss drugs or remedies unless cleared by the doctor. This not only includes weight loss drugs purchased with or without a prescription, but weight loss supplements and herbal products, as well.
