- Medical Weight LossPhentermine is classified as a prescription treatment that is used in a combination with behavior change, physical exercise and a specific diet program for effective weight loss. The therapy is prescribed for overweight people who suffer from weight-related medical conditions. Phentermine is effective for losing weight as decreasing the risk of dangerous health problems, such as increased blood pressure, heart disorders, diabetes, and others. Although medical studies have not proved Phentermine to reduce weight, its ingredients promote potential influence on the brain, decreasing appetite. Instead, the amount of energy that is consumed by the body is increased. Consequently, Phentermine is a quality appetite suppressant that can be a valuable part of a weight management program. Additionally, the drug may be used off-label for the improvement of other health problems. Contact your medical specialist to ensure the safety of the therapy and avoid possible abnormalities.
