Benzphetamine 50mg Tablets have been a bit of a double-edged sword for me. On one hand, they've helped me manage my appetite, and I've seen some weight loss, but on the other hand, I've experienced some side effects that are concerning. I've had trouble sleeping, and I've been feeling really restless. I've also had a few scares with my heart racing abnormally even when I was just sitting down. Does anyone else have similar experiences? I'm wondering if it's worth sticking with this medication. Also curious about how to manage the side effects better.

Side effects are scary, but I've been on this medication for a month, and it's been okay so far. Just make sure you stick to the prescription and don't overdo it.

I feel you on the restless part. I ended up switching to a different pill because I couldn’t sleep at all.

I had some crazy dreams when I first started taking these. It was like my brain was on overdrive. I stopped taking them after a week, though, because they gave me palpitations, too.

These meds are a last resort for me. Every time I've tried to stop I gain back all the weight I lost. It's a rough cycle.

Keep an eye on your blood pressure too. My doc said this med can cause high blood pressure, and that's no joke.

I was on Benzphetamine for a few weeks and got some hives. It was so itchy. Doctor said I might have been allergic. Talk about bad luck.

I had the same issue with the heart racing. Mine started with some chest tightness too. Be careful, man. You should really talk to your doctor about it.

Does anyone know if these side effects go away after a while, or do they stick around for the entire duration of the prescription?
