No: Phetermine is used as an apetite suppressant may worsen hypertension, cause dryness, insomia, mild jittering initially. It is well tolerated but need to drink atleast 32 oz of water daily.

NO But may worsen it: Phentermine will not cause ocd, but because it is activating, it can exacerbate ocd symptoms by increasing energy in an already anxious patient.
