Phentermine or other diet pills.

Hi everyone, I know I have ask you guys about the sub, Trileptal and Lexapro making you gain weight so I ask my psyc. about it and he looked in his little book and said that it is not reported to really increase appetite but there are studies that say that lexapro does but he also said but the pill dosen't weigh 10 pounds so I think you will be ok. lol
But really I'm gaining so much weight I think i'm like 7 pounds in like 2 months I can't take it, so my question is phentermine or other diet pills do you guys have any expirience with them and taking them with sub or lexapro.
Thank you and I hope you evening and night goes smothhhhhhhh!!!!

Well according to the guidelines I'm boderline over weight not obese but I'm 20 pounds over weight so yes I fit the regulations for taking Phentermine or any supresent, now as for the antidepresant same thing you could be depress and obese so yes 2 diagnosis 2 diffrent prescriptions, no the sub not sure at all on that, I was given phentermine 7 months ago that is when I was on lortabs and I told the doctor that I was taking that and zolof then and he still gave me some I was 165 to 170 then and I'm 5'8 so imagine that.
Doctor do some stupid things don't they, I need to change my profession I'm sick of the medical field.

Phentermine should only be taken by obese people with no other health problems. I can't imagine a doctor prescribing it to someone on antidepressants. If you are taking Sub also, I think it is out of the question.

My cousin was on Phentermine but not Sub or Lex....I think that if you took the sub along with the Phentermine, you would get real nervous and shaky...maybe even heart palpitations and put you into panic. I'm just guessing based on what each drug does and how the affects would be if you joined those two actions...but I would also suggest studying on both and search the web for the interactions....the web has info on every interaction with every drug because there is nothing that at least one person hasn't tried...it's all on the web man!
