I have taked phen many times over the last 5 years and I know the directions from the pharmacy say to take it 1 hour before breakfast. Do you do that? I was just wondering because when I am not taking the phen I do better with my weight if I eat something right after I wake up. When do you take it?

Hey Paula, I take my Phen between 5:45am and 7:00am, depending when I get ready for work. I take it right before I head out the door. I don't eat anything til about 1:00pm. It works very well for me.

I've only been on it a little over a week, but I take a full 37.5mg pill around 10am, usually on an empty stomach with water. I have to either eat something within the next 30 min, or eat something small to keep from gettin naseous for some reason right now. I'm hoping that will pass as I'm on it longer. So far it's carrying me through the day when I go to sleep around 10:30. I am drinking 100oz.+ of water a day though.

I was instructed to take it 2 hours after breakfast. I usually get up around 6:00 AM, and take the phen around 9:00 AM. I do need to eat a little something before or right after I take it or I get nauseous and high strung.

I take mine about an hour or so after breakfast. If I take my Phen first thing in the am before eating, I'll not want to eat any breakfast. I want to have a nice healthy breakfast before I lose my appetite.

It's interesting the different methods and times everyone takes this - and are still getting results. It also says something about how individualistic our bodies all are. Very cool.

I don't take mine until around 11 am, sometimes later. However, I do that because I need the most help with cravings later in the day. Also, it doesn't prevent me from sleeping, so that's why I can get away with it. I have taken it as late as 1pm and still been fine. I usually take it on an empty stomach and eat about 1 hour after.
