Thank you all for coming to this forum to share your ideas about losing weight, using phen, etc. Sorry if I am a little clumsy at using this site. I have taken phen since Jan. 31, took it 5 days, stopped for three, discovered I lost 9 pounds, even though my blood pressure is now 156 over 98, it was 120 over 80 before I began taking this phen. I need to lose at least 60 pounds, and preferably 80 or 90 would bring me to a humble happy place. I'll be happy just losing 50 if that's what it takes. My doctor has me on a 14 day regime, so, since I started again today, I will see her in two weeks. She made no comment about the high b.p., thinking if I get the weight off it will likely go down. I wonder if 37.5 dosage is too high. Should I just take half? I should change my display name to scaredy cat. Help,

Hey Guys,

Take heart. I too stopped using phen and started again.
Naz51 a bit of advice for you, you may want to see your physician. The increase in blood pressure sounds a bit concerning to me.
Anything over 140/90 is considered hypertensive. You may want to keep monitoring your blood pressure closely over the course of the week to make sure there is no underlying problem. Also, when you took your blood pressure were you under any sort of stress or just finished any strenuous activity???

On the up side, phentermine has been around for a VERY long time and it's safety has remained intact, however I have learned that there is a new threat of fake drugs flooding the market. I am always cautious as to where I get my drugs from. In the past when I took phentermine, I got it from my MD and now I order from the phentermine official website. Fake drugs in the market pose problems because they are not authentic and contain significantly less active ingredient as well as containing junk or fillers.

Just a thought.
Congrats on the 9 pounds loss though.
