I've been prescribed Phentermine Hcl 15mg Capsules to help with weight loss, and I'm approaching this with caution. I've read the possible side effects, and some of them are quite serious. Has anyone else had experience with this medication? I'm particularly concerned about the potential for heart valve problems and increased pressure in the lungs. I'm also curious to know if anyone has had positive experiences and has successfully lost weight with this medication, and whether it was easy to get off of. I'm also hoping to talk to others who have experienced bad side effects and how they handled them. I know that everyone is different, but I'm hoping that I can get some insight into what I should expect and how to handle any side effects that I might experience. The description says it should only be used for a short period of time, but I'm not sure how short that is. I've also read that it can take a few weeks to start working, so should I expect to be on it for a few weeks or a few months?

I wish I had found this thread sooner. I've been on Phentermine for about a month and have been experiencing some really bad headaches. I didn't think much of it at first, but now I'm worried about the high blood pressure side effects. Does anyone know if this is normal?

Be careful with this stuff. I was on it for a few weeks and had to stop because of the high blood pressure side effects. My doctor said it's not uncommon, but it's scary stuff.

I've been on Phentermine for 2 months and have lost 10 pounds. I didn't experience any serious side effects, just some dry mouth and trouble sleeping. But I've come to think that's a small price to pay for the progress I've made. I've also noticed that I'm not as hungry as I used to be, which has been really helpful. I'm hoping to lose at least 10 more pounds before I go off of it.

I've been on Phentermine for a month now and I've lost 5 pounds. I was really hoping to lose a good bit of weight in the first month, so I can't help but feel a little disappointed. I'm not sure if I should stick with it or not - has anyone else had this experience?

Does anyone know if this is normal? I've also been experiencing some really bad back pain, which I didn't think was related to the medication at first, but now I'm not so sure.
