Question
I started phen a few weeks ago. I really didn't experience many side effects except the dry mouth which has went away. I have been itching though. My arms, legs stomach, back you name it. It is weird though, it is only at night. Has anyone else experienced this? Is is from the phen? If someone could let me know, I am tired of not being able to sleep.

It could be the Phen. or mayber you're not drinking enough and it's simply dry skin?

Hey mama; I was itching so bad. I had been on phen for 4 mths when mine started. But you are pretty new to it. It might be the phen, or weather change. You might try some Non Drowsy Benadril. You can buy it over the counter. It should help with the itching. If you look at the phen site where it shows side effects, itching is one of them as well. But try the Benadril, REMEMBER--------- NON DROWSY one...Hope this helps. Queenie

I had a full blown attack of hives on Tuesday. I have this reaction to certain foods since I was a child. But I think the phen aggrevated it. It was really bad. I had to leave work. I stopped taking phen for a couple of days over this. I only took half a pill today I was so worried I would get another attack, but and I feel fine.

For the itching I bought Aveeno Lotion and Benedryl anti itch cream. For not sleeping my doctor prescribed Lunesta sleeping pills!! They are awesome!!

Hi Jen - you are the first person I know that has taken Lunesta - do you have any hang over effect the next morning after you take it?

Hey everyone! I have been taking Phen since August and I love it! I heard about it from a friend and it has been the easiest way to drop those hard to shed pounds and really start seeing results! I have dropped a size to a "6" and am already able to fit into some "4" 's. It is great! I exercise like crazy now, because I have so much energy. Last night my husband stopped me in the middle of a conversation to tell me how beautiful I am! Wow.....I have never been so happy. I will start to get on the forums now that I found this website.

girl! I also totally was itching. i just started taking them on oct 10th and i even went to the doctor to see what it was. i even changed my body wash thinking it was an allergic reaction to my soap. guess not.lol. It's slowly going away...but it's really annoying because everytime I scratch i feel like Im going to get stretch marks or something...lol. Atleast now i know I'm not the only one with this effect. i wonder if it's a bad thing?

I just started taking them and I get goosebumps for no reason. Itching? I don't know. When someone says are you itching I get a sympathectic itch.

Okay the itching sounds scary. For those who've had it and it's gone away...how long did it last and how bad was it??

I was itching yesterday and right now, but I just realized that I drank alot of coffee yeasterday, and today I've had four cups too. This is way more than I usually drink, and I'm thinking this may something to do with it. I've taken phen before, and never had a problem with itching.
remember.. Nothing tastes as good as thin feels!!!!

OMG...this is my second day on and I am having an itching fit right now. My arm and legs...I wonder what this can be. I don't drink coffee and have no idea why this has happened. Anyone find out the reason?

My situation is reversed. I have itchy dry skin usually and after taking phen I'm fine. Weird.

I think I figured out the itching thing, I was going to the tanning bed and it has been pretty cold here. I think I had the case of dry skin. It just happened that one time and I make sure I lotion up when I get out the shower while I am still wet (advice from the tanning salon)
