Safe: Patients on phetermine do not develop addiction even after prolonged used as shown in studies. My experince most patients who combine phetermine with life style modification actual see a decrease in their blood pressure. Common concern will be, dehydration constipation, initial jitteriness that wears away after a few days, insomnia . Hence take early in the morning, increase fiber increase water

Phentermine: Is a controlled substance and mildly addicting. Metformin is often added to help lose weight, and it can help with this!
