Has any one taking phentermine for weight loss? Pros & cons

2

I didn’t like it made me feel anxious and depression worse had to stop.

I lost 32 lbs from June 2023 to October 2023. But also quit drinking soda. If you have anxiety, it does amplify that. Also, you will be VERY thirsty and have constant dry mouth.

I have years ago. Made me a little sick smelling food for a while. You also need to be regularly checked out by the doctor because it raises your blood pressure and heart rate.
Also, you can’t be on it very long.
That being said, it works. But if you don’t change your lifestyle, you gain it all back. It’s more like a Kickstarter, not a permanent solution.

I take it! My prescription is 37.5 mg but I only take a half of pill a day, if not it does mess with my sleep routine. I only take it Monday - Friday and skip sat&sun. I’m down 24 pounds since April, but I also work out 5 days a week &watch what I consume (calorie wise), so basically use it as an appetite suppressant, specifically while I’m at work. (Sit at a desk all day, and would like to snack too much). I’ve had no other issues with it, besides watching what time I take it in the morning, if too late in the day I won’t take it bc it does keep you up at night. I got it prescribed through my PCP

Do they still have those phentermine clinics?
