Phentermine effective for weight loss on Remeron?

Posted by Madge on February 12, 2003, at 21:21:33

I was just perscribed Phentermine, the non implicated part of phen fen to speed up my metabolism to lose the 12 lbs I gained initially when I started taking Remeron. Has anyone tried this? and how successful was the treatment for weightloss? I understand the major side effect can be anxiety, but some people just feel a false sense of well being which supersedes the anxiety. I started on 15mg today and felt fine... a false sense of well being.. and that was ok with me..

Hi
I took phentermine, 37.5 without any ad's for weight loss several times over a period of a few years. Was great for weight loss as long as you did not over eat at any time. Once you start to really eat while taking it it loses it effect.This is what I have been told.I pretty much had no appetite, though I was rather jumpy and anxious definetly never had a sense of well being. I have to say I really hated the way it made me feel but it worked. I didn't realize you could mix it with ad's. I just asked my doctor the other day if there were ad,s that you could combine with weight loss meds.
Do you have any knowledge of other possible combinations?
