Heart palpitations caused by phentremine diet pills.....
My sister has been taking phentremine diet pills that she bought off the internet without a prescription. No one knew she was taking them. She was even taking them behind her husband's back. Now she is really sick. Anybody else get sick after taking them? The most disturbing of her symptoms is heart palpitations.
Would appreciate hearing from anyone else who has had problems after taking these drugs.

when i take the pills...I have nasty,nasty breath? any ideas ?
SO, I JUST BOUGHT PHENTREMINE....IT'S NOT THE SAME AS PHENTERMINE ????
1.) 1995 i had severe (24hr non-stop) palpitations.
no apparent reason but after being admitted to the ER it was discovered that i was very low in potassium. I was not eating properly and changed immediately my diet to include foods rich in potassium. The palpitations abated.
2.) Aug, 2007, with dr. supervision i take phentremine for weigth loss assistance (6wk intervals with 2month or more break). I recently started having palpitations but not all day or extreme but certainly noticible; i examined what and how much i was eating, looked closely at my exercise routine (i run and had a dehydated experience on a 100degree day 2 days before the palpitations started). I had only been taking the pills for three days (about my fourth regimine), I immediately ate a banana, and really ate on time (hungry or not) and made sure my meals were very rich in potassium.. ie. brocolli, tomatoes, banana's etc. The palpitations (after a week) stopped and i reduced my exercise routine to fast walking once the sun goes down. I live in Miami and the summer has been very hot.
Point: I believe that eating properly especially when dieting is the key meds or not. Knowing your body and health history are essential. A good exam with a qualified doctor will prove to be priceless! My doctor started me off on a half dose for one week, and then increased to the full pill afterward but my doctor also made me very much aware of any potential side affects and cautioned me to stop if anything in the slightest was concerning. She did tell me that taking the pill early in the day was essential to make sure i was able to rest well... added energy yes, feeling jumpy no.

Using hcg can suppress your appetite more safely(if used under medical supervision, of course) than phen drugs. ask your doctor about it?
Two different items are being discussed here, which may be what's leading to the conflicting answers. PhentERmine is a prescription drug while phentREmine is a supplement that contains hoodia. Both are widely available on the internet.
I just wanted to thank you all for taking the time to post your comments. I got this ad in my email and decided to google it before I actually gave my info for the "free" trial. I'm at a plateau (I'm told) and can't lose this last 20-25 lbs. I'm frustrated now and have tried switching up my exercise routine. I'm a vegetarian but could definitely do better with my diet. I am looking for a safe appetite suppressant. I would prefer not to take drugs at all. But I realize that some drugs are actually beneficial. These comments really help because they are from real people who have tried the product. Thanks!!!
