Question about Phentermine side effects

[fivmnkez]

Hi,
I am new here and I was wondering if someone can tell me if Phentermine is the drug that was recalled for causing heart problems? If not what was that drug called?
I am interested in going to the dr. to get phenteremine prescribed but, I have 5 children and don't want to put my health at risk.
Any help would be greatful!
Thank you,
Jill

Hi fivmnkez!
I believe that was the combo drug called phen/fen. The bad pill that was causing heart problems was fenflurimine(sp) or something like that. The fen one you cannot get, they pulled it off the market.
