the eyes bulging out isnt a good sign i dont think, your blood pressure may have risen, the dry mouth is normal, you just need to drink water like never before!!! it will become normal to you

it will be 2 weeks 2mor i have been on phen......i drink more than probably 12 bottles of water when i am @ work i get home and fix a glass of water so the water thing is not helping me but gum is i think my eyes bulging has to do with me staring @ a computer screen througout the day more so @ night......@ night is when my eyes feel terrible.......i was taken chromium w/ the phen but i had to quit taking that a couple of days ago because it would give me terrible headaches.

no when ever i stare @ the tv or computer screen for too long my eyes feel like they are coming outta my head lol its like straining to look @ something lol.........i decided 2day i was not going to take my phen so hoping the side affects will wear down by 2mor........everyone says they get hyper and have energy but i am the opposite i do not have extra energy and by mid day i am drained & tired as hell!!!! they say tiredness and dry mouth are some of the less common to rare side effects or thats what i read on wikipedia

When I was on Phen years ago I experienced that eye bulging feeling. I had the dose lowered and it seemed to help. Dry mouth? Thats an understatement! Drink more water and then some more. Good luck

Dry mouth seems to be the worst side effect. I drink lots of water and chew gum. I can't say that I'm feeling the eye bulge.

I had very tired eyes the first few days. They just ached and even though I wasn't sleepy, I felt the urge to close my eyes, especially in the evening.

Get this, I wear invisilign braces so I can't chew gum! Dry mouth is even worse with this dumb appliance I have to wear!
My highest weight ever-250-and that was before kids!

oh i have two tricks for the "chronic dry mouth that makes you crazy and bored with your water".. first is keeping sugar free gum on me at all times (also helps with the bad breath caused by eating less) and i keep various different flavored sugar free drinks close at hand.
