Can a 12 year old child take 37.5 phentermine or will it cause health problem later in life.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Phentermine: A 12 year old child should not be taking phentermine. In fact, adults shouldn't even take it, but definitely not a 12 year old (if you are taking about using it for weight loss).
