Phentermine 37.5mg Weight Loss Rx Required By jchick on Oct 03, 2007 - Updated Sep 18, 2011

I was prescribed Phentermine 37.5mg by my GYN about a year ago...let me tell you that it works better than any diet pill out there. I lost 45lbs while on Phentermine. This was in about a 4 month time period. Most doctors will only prescribe for 3 months, I talked mine into one extra month...though by that month the effects were not as good (your body gets used to the meds).

I did diet with Phentermine, but I hate to admit I did not exercise. I went from size 18 denial to a size 12 where I am still at a year later (though now I want to go smaller!) I would highly recommend Phentermine. It did not give me the shakes/jitters that some diet pills give you. I did have to take Tylenol PM/Sleep Aids to go to sleep at night...but my house was never as clean as it was when I was on Phentermine.

My doctor will not prescribe them anymore for me, says I have to do the rest the hard way (ie. diet and exercise)...
