How to Buy Phentermine Hydrochloride

Phentermine hydrochloride is a drug that is sometimes prescribed to obese adults as part of a weight-loss plan. When taken in safe doses, it stimulates norepinephrine production in the brain, sending the body into a fight-or-flight response that calms the appetite. In the United States and in many other countries, it is only available by prescription and is otherwise classified as a controlled substance because of its pharmaceutical similarities to amphetamines.

      Talk to your doctor about weight loss medications and what you can do to lose weight. If your doctor does not suggest phentermine hydrochloride as an option, you can bring it up. Since there are unique risks associated with taking this drug, it is usually only prescribed in cases where the obesity itself poses even greater risks. If you are only moderately overweight and your health is not in imminent danger, your doctor may determine that you are not a candidate for a phentermine hydrochloride regimen.
