Phentermine is a prescription medication used as a short-term weight loss aid, typically prescribed for individuals with obesity or weight-related medical conditions. It acts as an appetite suppressant by stimulating the central nervous system, increasing heart rate and blood pressure, and reducing hunger sensations. Phentermine is usually taken once daily, either before breakfast or 1-2 hours after breakfast. Common side effects include dry mouth, insomnia, increased heart rate, and constipation. Due to its stimulant properties, phentermine can be habit-forming and is intended for short-term use, in combination with a doctor-approved exercise, behavior change, and reduced-calorie diet program for best results.
