Is it safe to use phendimetrazine to lose weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: Phendimetrazine is an amphetamine with many side effects, some annoying, some dangerous, and some life-threatening. It is not proven to work well for any long-term weight loss. It interacts with many different medications, and is totally unsafe to use during pregnancy. I would stay away.
