A member asked:
Is it ok to take phentermine if prescribed by a doctor? what are the effects?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Phentermine Danger: Nope. First you should fire any doctor that would prescribe this medication. It is dangerous to your heart. It tricks your brain into an obsession to keep taking it even when there is no real weight loss. It will not lead to any lasting weight loss and it may permanently damage your heart.
