I have high blood pressure that is controlled by medication. Can i take phentermine for weight lose?

If Doctor supervised? I have to lose 100+ poundsI have high blood pressure that is controlled by medication. Can i take phentermine for weight lose?
I doubt the doctor would approve. Phentermine should not be taken if you have high blood pressure, it will increase your risk of stroke and heart attack. Look at the GI Diet by Rick Gallop. Its a good healthy diet and is sustainable. I have lost a lot of weight with it in the last 7 months;I have high blood pressure that is controlled by medication. Can i take phentermine for weight lose?
Don't do it. Go natural! Traditional, without drugs. Good luck!
yes
The medication can potentially elevate your blood pressure. I'm glad you mentioned doctor supervision. Your physician could counsel you regarding medications or other methods that could assist you in reaching your goal.





I, like you, also take medication for blood pressure control and could lose some pounds. I've found that walking, eating more vegetables and fruits, less ';sweets'; and drinking lots of water helps me in shedding the pounds and inches.





Good Luck!
Ask your dr., girl. There are major dangers from weight loss drugs.
Talk to your doctor and your pharmicist!!!!
Taking medication when you don't absolutely need it is always a bad idea, as they all have side effects. Eating well and burning more calories than you ingest through healthy and moderate exercise is always better than taking a pill.
That's up to your doctor. At your weight you should be able to get a prescription. But you'll need to have your BP monitored while you're on it. You might have to get a blood test first too.


It does work very well and I've been happy with my results.
I wouldn't mess with it...a lot of these things speed up your heart rate as far as I know...you shouldn't be messing with your heart. Exercise...every day...small meals...see a nutritionist and get a trainer at the gym.
Ask your doctor but the warning label says no!
Definetly talk to your doctor, blood pressure is the silent killer, and you can't mix too many meds with it. If under supervision I think u would be fine because they can keep a constant check on you. I would not mix a diet pill with it, those things cause problems without having high blood pressure.
Now that's a great question for YA! I'm so glad YA is here to answer my medical questions; it's such a bother to call my doctor or pharmacist and ask these questions.
I would talk to your doctor before taking it. I believe that you can - but I am not a doctor.
