Indications and Usage
Phentermine hydrochloride is a sympathomimetic amine anorectic indicated as a short-term adjunct (a few weeks) in a regimen of weight reduction based on exercise, behavioral modification and caloric restriction in the management of exogenous obesity for patients with an initial body mass index ≥ 30 kg/m2, or ≥ 27 kg/m2 in the presence of other risk factors (e.g., controlled hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia). (1)
The limited usefulness of agents of this class, including phentermine hydrochloride, should be measured against possible risk factors inherent in their use
Dosage and Administration
Dosage should be individualized to obtain an adequate response with the lowest effective dose.
Late evening administration should be avoided (risk of insomnia).
Phentermine hydrochloride tablets can be taken with or without food
Contraindications
History of cardiovascular disease (e.g., coronary artery disease, stroke, arrhythmias, congestive heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension) During or within 14 days following the administration of monoamine oxidase inhibitors
Hyperthyroidism
Glaucoma
Agitated states
History of drug abuse
Pregnancy
Nursing
Known hypersensitivity, or idiosyncrasy to the sympathomimetic amines
Warning and Precautions
Coadministration with other drugs for weight loss is not recommended (safety and efficacy of combination not established). Rare cases of primary pulmonary hypertension have been reported. Phentermine should be discontinued in case of new, unexplained symptoms of dyspnea, angina pectoris, syncope or lower extremity edema. Rare cases of serious regurgitant cardiac valvular disease have been reported. Tolerance to the anorectic effect usually develops within a few weeks. If this occurs, phentermine should be discontinued. The recommended dose should not be exceeded. Phentermine may impair the ability of the patient to engage in potentially hazardous activities such as operating machinery or driving a motor vehicle. Risk of abuse and dependence. The least amount feasible should be prescribed or dispensed at one time in order to minimize the possibility of overdosage. Concomitant alcohol use may result in an adverse drug reaction. Use caution in patients with even mild hypertension (risk of increase in blood pressure). A reduction in dose of insulin or oral hypoglycemic medication may be required in some patients.
