new user of phen

[gugi]

Hi I would like to get some information from women who have taken the phentermine. I have consulted my doctor and she prescribed me the 30mg for the morning a 15mg for the afternoon and another 15 mg for the evening. I should take them 1/2 hour before eating. I am also on a 600 cal./day diet. Diet which consists of low fat and low sodium. I started yesterday and feel good. My doctor also told me to take 2 B-150 vitamins, 1 multi vitamin, 8 folic acid, and a waterpill a day. Experienced phen users is this too much medication? or should I judge on how I feel? I am looking forward to hearing from experienced phen users. Also looking for partners for encouragement and support.

Hi gugi,
Your Dr started you out on a VERY high dose. I wouldn't take that much if your new to it.
Tell your Dr. Not even the drug company that makes the drug recommends that high of dose and neither does the FDA.

Ive heard of people getting pulmonary hypertension doing that... I hope you get a second opinion from a better doctor. I lost 20 pounds in a month taking just 30mg a day. You need to take vitamins, eat right and exercise a little and it will work for you, just dont hurt yourself. Good luck!

How can one survive on 600 calories a day...
It seems like a set up to fail. How are you really doing?
