Phentermine: Yes. Of course. But it is not safe to take phentermine. I would wish you had asked that question before starting it. Phentermine is dangerous to your body and your heart. It will never lead you to real or lasting weight loss. Any physician who prescribed it for you does not have your best interests in mind.
