Default Phentermine Message Board FAQ:?

Hey all,

I was wondering what people thought of creating a Phentermine Message Board FAQ (Frequently asked questions)?

We seem to get a lot of new people on here every week asking similar questions to others we've just answered. If we created it as a sticky and titled it something like Please read this FAQ before posting? And address the basic questions.

I've been on lots of other forums that do this. I'm not trying to discourage anyone from posting and asking their questions it just seems like there are certain things we post over and over again:

Would people be interested in creating something like this? I could certainly help coordinate it! It would be great if others would help with the answers. If you guys like the idea here are some of the common questions I think it should address. Please tell me what other ones should be included?
  • How do I find a doctor to prescribe phentermine?
  • My doctor won't prescribe phentermine, can I order it online?
  • Do I need a prescription to order phentermine? (I think goth already has an answer to this)
  • What are common side effects of phentermine? (obviously we're not docs so we can link to a medical page describing common side effects)
  • How much weight can I expect to lose on Phen?
  • Help, I'm constipated! Is this normal? What can I do about it?
  • What can I do to help the Phentermine work?

Let me know if you guys think this is a good idea and if you'd be interested in helping with some of the answers?

Thanks!
-S

I think it's an awesome idea. I'm drawing a blank as far as what questions to ask right now. Got my hoodlems running around and it's hard to think. Most definately, I'd be up for that.

I think it is a great idea. Every so often the newbie questions pop up. Thats not bad, but it would be helpful for someone new to be able to just look at the FAQs. I'll help anyway I can.

I thought of another one:

"Do I need to be on a special diet on Phen?"

How much exercise should I do?
Why am I not losing, I'm eating less than 1000 calories?
Why do I need XX amout of water?
Can I drink coffee or energy drinks?
Why am I not supposed to take cold medicine with Phen?
What is "low carb"?



These are just some of the ones that I thought of.

What about,

"Do I really have to drink that much water?
How much exercise is too much exercise?
What to talk to my doctor about to get on phen?
How often should I weigh myself?
Is phen a miracle pill or will the weight come piling back on after I stop using it?"

Just a few more to add to the list

Do I really need to change my eating habits?
Weight gain after Phen?
Filling snacks?

These are all good:

Do you have to exercise to lose weight on Phentermine?
What are the different dosages available of Phentermine?
How often should I take it?
Can I take phentermine if I'm pregnant?
My doctor prescribed phentermine and an anti depressant (lexapro/wellbutrin/prozac) is this safe?

As a newbie I actually looked around for something like this and couldn't find it. I think it would be a great idea!

I think it's a great idea. I spent hours searching the forums looking for answers. It would be really nice to have them in one spot.

Here's a few more:

Are mood swings normal on Phentermine?
Is it bad to eat too little?
