I am on phentermine diet pills. my dentist has prescribed me amoxicillin for an infection. can i still take the phentermine with it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes & no: There is not a specific drug interaction but if you don't eat or drink enough because of the Phentermine it can increase the negative reactions from the amoxicillin. I would recommend taking some form of pro-biotic such as acidopolous or cultural with your medications and plenty of water.
