I tried phentermine, I had extreme pain in my forearms and lost some ability to grip things, which was not a fun side effect working in a kitchen, and well, pain just isn't fun. But I did lose 50 lbs. Gained it all back +10
So I have tried two medications on list. My starting weight was 183 lbs at 5 ft tall. Exercise daily and ate organic for year before reaching out for help and had no luck in loosing weight. I started on Contrave which takes away appetite but had awful side affect I actually felt like I had no emotions. I am mostly a really happy person and positive but I felt num or blah. Very odd. I then switched to phentermine during day and toper-mate at night and went down to 118lbs with daily exercise and healthy eating but when decreased dose weight started coming up as appetite does increase. Hair loss if you don’t supplement with vitamins and really cold poor circulation.
Would love to here is there truly a solution to hunger. So weight became issue after kids doctor was like it’s normal for weight to take this long . Hormones. It was 5 years later and I was like this is not normal. I’m sure there are so many moms out there that have gone through the same thing. I spent 3 hrs in gym every day for years exercised every day during pregnancies. Had beautiful children got blessed with melasma and weight. So it’s disturbing when people seek help for weight loss finally get it off then knowing for some reason when you get off medicine weight comes on. So even when I reduced medicine I was only eating two small meals a day and weight literally just comes on and exhaustion kicks in again. I was told you don’t have to exercise but if I don’t there is no way I was maintaining. I ended up almost hitting my goal and had emergency surgery pelvis floor prolapse out of no were. I’ve been completely healthy my whole life other then this weight gain then ended up getting a hysterectomy. So be mindful and educated on all choices you take. I truly believe there is another reason why my body doesn’t loose weight. So weight climbed on with no exercise and now at 148lbs back at it again. Some people assume people just stuff there face all day that is not always the case. Us moms or women or men just want to be comfortable in our own skin. I know I don’t feel like me. With all the doctors in the world this should be easy.
The best part is it does not require dieting. Did you ever think that losing weight in an easy and natural way may be possible? It seems like a dream but it's not because we've just discovered a method that let us cut our body fat percentage in half within only one month. There are many different diets out there that claim they can help us lose weight and improve our health but only one of them deliver results.
That's wonderful! I just saw a weight loss doctor yesterday and she would not give me the popular diabetes medicines because I don't have diabetes. She put me on Contrave.
I am 64 years old. I was very obese . My insurance will not pay for Ozempic/Wegovy. 6 months ago I started Bupropion. I cant take Con trave because of Naltrexone. I am 5 feet tall and I weighed i at 244.I am currently 205. I no longer eat emotionally or binge either . I am teying to get back down to 150. Will stay on this forever
My doctor is a genius and you’re advice is spot on. Mine put me 1, 4, 5 And for number five I do it to support an intermittent fasting and I lost significant weight and has stayed off for three years. Realize I should exercise but that is the one thing that hasn’t changed yet. Good advise.
Great information, maybe you could also review the worst medications that actually ironically raise insulin and make you gain weight while trying to control blood sugar. This is very frustrating for patients who are really trying to make all of the right lifestyle changes thank you
I can say Zoloft is the worst. I was on it for 16 years and couldn't figure why I was gaining wt despite eating clean as possible. My doctor didn't even explain this to me. By time figure it out, my damn doctor said just get over it and accept your weight. Much to say I fired her.
I had labs done recently and am hypothyroid and very leptin resistant. My leptin was 31. I’m about 20lbs overweight and cannot lose anything. I talked my Pcp into letting me try naltrexone. We started at 3mg. He is willing to bump it to 5 if I have no trouble with it. I also take a slew of your thyroid supplements and I’m on a very low carb diet. I’m a metabolic and hormonal mess after cancer treatment 4 years ago. Praying this works!
On Phentermine 15 mg now. Low dosage but good. No heart palpitations or dry mouth. General feeling of wellbeing, moderate appetite suppression. Not great but enough to make me not want to eat until after lunch. Just a sandwich. No sweet junk cravings. No snacking. Easy to get through an 8 hr shift at work. Whereas before I tried 30 mg and it was too strong. I felt jittery, dry mouth, etc.
I tried convincing my doctor to prescribe me phentermine. I’m working out 5x a week. My bmi is around 38-39. My diet is okay, but my appetite is crazy. It’s what i get for living in a little town where doctors are scared of prescribing anything cuz their patients abuse the meds and end up blaming the doctors.
I recently started Metformin for weight loss, but have to tell I am peri - menopause and couldnt lose an inch for month, though I am in a calorie deficit. Started Metformin 1 week ago and already lost 1.6 kg. Thats a lot for me, because I only need to lose 5-6 kg. We will see how it progresses, but I am really enthusiastic about these results. I also do not eat any sugar and eat healthy as usual.
Ive found Astragalus 4500 mg an when i rember to take i naturally eat less sleep better have more energy . I just started so its remembering. .an no side effects metformin obzekit was crazzy . Never again . I didn't plan to control appetite with Astragalus. I got for inflammation.. an cant believe how much this root does still blows my mind . Worth checking out
I tried Naltrexone, was so constipated I gained 7kg. Then changed it to LDN, didn't like the side effects. Metformin isn't doing much either 😕 I heard Saxenda causes thyroid tumors, not sure. Phentermine is horrible, couldn't sleep for 7 days straigh, hair was falling out. Rather stick to Intermittent Fasting or OMAD rather.
Same the weird thing with phentermine is I couldn’t sleep but I was tired AF. I guess if I couldn’t sleep but wasn’t tired it wouldn’t be so bad but it’s like sleep deprivation which makes me really bitchy
So I have lost 160lbs on Zepbound! My insurance is kicking me off! What is good med that I can take to maintain or lose more! I sure don’t want to go back ! Thank you
Very informative, I used Phentermine in the past, good results at the time. I started on it today and had adverse reactions. Made me want to sleep. Needless to say I'm not going to use Phentermine. Thanks for your insight on that Doc!
It’s a terrible drug. I’m not even one with a lot of mental issues but I was so blue and couldn’t sleep. My anxiety was through the roof. I wouldn’t wish it on an enemy. Stopped it after 2 weeks.
What do you think of Rybelsus? I think it's the first GLP 1 in oral form. There is a thyroid tumor warning on the drug. I'm hypothyroid and a little concerned about Rybelsus' long term effects. I'm taking Rybelsus and it has been helpful in reducing nighttime appetite and have lost 12 lbs in 3.5 months.
Is Saxenda in the same class as Rybelsus/Ozempic? I tired those and they made me lose weight but I think it is because I was sick most of the time and throwing up. Stopped it because I couldn’t deal with the side effects. Would this be different?
Interesting! I had a severe twelve-month weight loss plateau after getting off Prozac, and tried a GLP-1 medication for three months - and could not even lose one gram of weight with heavy exercise and calorie restriction. I tried Metformin and lost ten pounds in two months. I have read that Prozac can deregulate AMPK pathways, and that Metformin can up-regulate them, so I can hypothesise that perhaps that had something to do with breaking-through my plateau.
I had my thyroid completely removed 10 years ago and have always just been on Synthroid anywhere between 0.175 to .225. I had a benign tumor that was extremely vascular and growing quickly, they couldn't tell if it was cancerous so they rushed me in. I ended up in the trauma unit for 5 days after surgery, whole list of problems occurred hours after surgery. I do not suffer weight gain whatsoever and never have, its the opposite for me where i have issues keeping my weight. They have never sent me for a T3 test, its always a T4 blood test. I now am told I have high calcium and my doctor is concerned about it. He also tells me there is a chemical being produced from my brain because of the absence of a thyroid and it is producing too much of it. He says this chemical can effect my heart rhythm. Kinda freaking out now. What i have noticed throughout the years that i will suffer EXTREME chill to the point it feels like a seizure, i can feel it coming on out of nowhere and when it happens, im running for the hot hot shower and stay im there for at least 30 minutes until im comfortable to get out. This happens at least once every 3 months ish. Hope you can give me some insight.
😢the calcium is likely your parathyroid. If it has a growth it just needs to be removed. Since you are a redo I recommend contacting the parathyroid center at Tampa Gen. They are aorld renown and gwt you in and out.
Hello Dr.Chids I’m a new sub, & I really enjoy your videos, Thanks! Question, over 5yrs ago put on Topomax, for migraines, & I instantly lost allot of weight, it made appetite disappear..Unfortunately in last past 6-9 mo’s I started antidepressants & Ive gained at least 25 lbs, i haven’t changed ANY eating habits, I still eat one meal a day! ,in your opinion Would increasing topomax (i also have had an increase of migraines & never had a change on dosages) help loose appetite again & help migraines? Or do you think my body is too used to Topomax for weight loss anymore? & have you hear of Topomax helping others fir weight loss? Thank you
Grateful to Dr. Childs for his channel because I found out about the Bydureon pen. Awesome!! I prefer Tenuate to Phentermine. I take Armour thyroid, great diet, intermittent fasting and Dr. Childs supplements. Bydureon pen is a game changer.
If I’m taking Atorvastin and hydrochlorothiazide what is the best diet medication for I’m 43 years 186 pound I would love to loss some weight can you please help me
I had to beg my family doctor for naltrexone and Contrave even though I was already taking Wellbutrin for years. None of my doctors or psychologist had even head about it. I started taking 50mg for weight loss. After a while, it just stopped working on the binge eating/sugar addiction. What kind of doctor/specialist should I be seeking out?
Well I had hyperthyroidism, did the RAI. Take 1 (125mg) euthyrox. I did a kidney function test came back negative & the doc say am fine. But I think other wise as I gave been having pain in that area for years now on my right side. Anyways would the b13 shot be good for me
He says in this video and another one about the dangers of Phentermine and that he has videos on how to use it but where are they? I've searched but can't find your videos on how you recommend using Phentermine
❤❤❤hello everybody in the chat is a pill what you really want???God bless America who lives in greensboro nc that willing to walk !!!team makes the dream!!❤❤❤
Hi Dr Childs, I've been going to a Balance Hormone Doctor. My Doctor gave me Ozempic. I was allergic to it. My neck got a rash near my thyroid area and I didn't loose weight. Once I stopped. My rash went away. What do you recommend? Thank you.
Great information. Thank you for being so thorough in addressing these medications. I tried Contrave and Phentermine. They really had no effect on me. I have not tried the #1 on your list, but will look into it. I am also curious about the new weight loss med/aid Plenity.
Hello Doc, I have a hypothyroidism and just taking levothyroxine but i'm also taking anti TB drugs and losartan, is it ok to take levothyroxine together with those meds?
Ok thx for that. I’ve been taking Contrave since Monday and haven’t noticed much difference at all. It seems that my cravings for sweets may be a little less, but I still eat and don’t feel much difference. I am sleeping more.
I recently had labs done and my CK levels came back high, my doctor just told me to slow down whatever I’m doing but didn’t give me any explanation. Do any of these medications affect my kidneys? I’ve been trying to loose weight and had no luck.
I was on phentermine first time in 2019 I lost 25lbs the first month no diet no exercise felt great then I quit . So I got back on this year April 2022 almost 2 months now only lost 10 lbs been sick 🤕 like every day , low energy , fatigue , mood swing , headaches , can’t sleep , constipation it’s been awful , I need an alternative that my insurance can cover . I’m so over it 😤
I’m not sure what you took, but for me there seemed to be a big difference between the Phentermine tablet and capsule. The tablet gave me similar side effects as you and I didn’t lose any real weight, but do much better on the capsule…it seems to keep my metabolism running and helps with my appetite. Not sure why they seem to be different.
I no this is over 2yr ago, but I'm taking magnesium gluconate 500mg 1× a day, and Im starting to feel way better than I did 8 yrs ago.Does the thyroid burn up magnesium?
My issue is I'm a "emotional eater" So for the past yr I've gained 30 pds due to a very traumatic experience. I need something that will cut my appetite.
Let me tell you what I did. I also am/was an emotional eater. My goal was weight loss PLUS improvement for two diseases. I did a loose form of keto. I eat ALL the meat I want PLUS I eat ALL the low carb veggies I want. The weight began coming off, but since I wanted it to come off faster, I then started doing intermittent fasting. The weight SLID off. I stayed satiated by eating until I gorged. Today I weigh 120. Been 120 for 3 years.
So I was on phentermine and topermiate for quite some time was around 170 s at 5ft tall and got to 116 with diet and exercise and as I was decreasing to get off I had some side affects so tongue swelling, hair loss , pigmentation on skin, being cold. Stopped topermiate and reduced phentermine and stopped. Weight came back on after 1 year. Now going to start saxenda with phentermine. What do you think of that combo
Kinda late to the party here but I am trying to lose 50+ lbs after a injury in the military and have had a hard time of it - here is a stupid question what kind of doctor can I go to to get this kind of advise and guidance?
Those 2 med keep your body from storing fat from foods. Greezy foods in case of a cheat day. They helped me cause I stayed cheating on diets. I don't anymore tho
II’ve got my rx for contrave today, It has 8 mg of naltrexone in it. You work up to 4 pills a day. That would be 32 mg of naltrexone. Is that too much in one day?
What would you recommend for a 10 lbs weight loss? My current levels are good, including the free t3/ reverse t3 but I’m a little heavier than pre rai...also my a1c is 5.1 so I don’t know how to even bring it up to my pcp.
10 lbs. only ? I would recommend self love 💕 and self acceptance. Better yet God's love. If all you have to lose is 10lbs it probably isn't even affecting your health and it surely should not be affecting any sane person's acceptance of you. If someone else is not accepting you because you need to lose 10lbs.then I would question that person's character.
If I could (or wanted to) diet and exercise, why would I need this medications? Obesity is on thing that the medical community just doesn't have a clue about. They can replace your heart but have no solid plan on weight loss. If the official "treatment" for obseity is diet and excersise.........why don't medical facilities have gyms and trained professionals on site and covered by insurance? We could go there every day and workout with trained professionals teaching us what excersises will help us to reach our goals.
There isn't much covered for people that need it! I know because I am diabetic let alone am over weight! I can't even get bariatric surgery let alone was chewed and spit out like trash for needed help cuz I went through this the wrong way was told to find out the root of the problem I did had to throw out all equal Splenda sweet and low sugar and white flour wheat and rye and go with sugar free and then chickpea noodles I been following it and will and now the pharmacy claimed they never received the contavre that the only one covered with me and nothing else is so I had to be taken off the Phenatrime and only lost 5 lbs and disappointed but now am fighting it cuz no meds were called or anything told deal with it from other ppl I am and I am ready and it where I been eating the correct way to and down to 223.3 was at 230
Omg. Slow down why are you in such a rush?? If you don’t have time to do a video then don’t do the video watching and listening to you makes me nervous
How about you convey this politely? Why are you so rude? It’s not all about you. I watched it and got no nervousness at all. Try being nicer for God’s sake. He’s trying to help people. Good lord.
You are wrong. Over eating is cause by depression medication you can’t do anything about it those psych medications cause over eating And most people need those medications So they need other medication to help them
Thank you so much 760Plus Credit Score for helping me increase my credit score and delete derogatory remarks. It took just within 2 weeks for them to get my credit back to excellent. Now I've been pre-approved for a mortgage loan and I'm currently home shopping! It's a dream come true and a personal goal accomplished with your help.
My doctor put me on both of those and I have PCOS. Metformin 500 mg and Phentermine 37.5 mg. So far I’ve had a positive experience with steady weight loss and more energy. I also switched to a low carb diet & drink more water.

I asked for Saxenda and my doctor gave me Ozempic (sister drug), I'm also on Vyvanse for binge eating. I've lost 52lbs 4 months.
And how much is it costing you?

Same thing happen to me!!! OMG
I take both LDN (for Hashimotos) and Metformin for DM2. Hasn’t helped me lose weight.😥
What about Qsymia and Plenity Doc? Hope u are doing great. U are transparent and i luv that. Keep ur head up. U will be reinstated💞💞💞
Phentermine cause me so much trouble. I almost think it was what pulled the “trigger” on Hashimotos for me 😣
I agree, same here!
It’s a terrible drug. I’m not even one with a lot of mental issues but I was so blue and couldn’t sleep. My anxiety was through the roof. I wouldn’t wish it on an enemy. Stopped it after 2 weeks.
Yes I was so depressed and down crying and I'm a full grown man. It was a hot mess.
Does Saxenda wirk well for women who are perimenipausal with almost 100lbs to lose?

He says in this video and another one about the dangers of Phentermine and that he has videos on how to use it but where are they? I've searched but can't find your videos on how you recommend using Phentermine
❤❤❤hello everybody in the chat is a pill what you really want???God bless America who lives in greensboro nc that willing to walk !!!team makes the dream!!❤❤❤
Sweetheart, many of us are physically unable to walk.
Hi Dr Childs, I've been going to a Balance Hormone Doctor. My Doctor gave me Ozempic. I was allergic to it. My neck got a rash near my thyroid area and I didn't loose weight. Once I stopped. My rash went away.
What do you recommend? Thank you.
Great information. Thank you for being so thorough in addressing these medications. I tried Contrave and Phentermine. They really had no effect on me. I have not tried the #1 on your list, but will look into it. I am also curious about the new weight loss med/aid Plenity.
Hello Doc, I have a hypothyroidism and just taking levothyroxine but i'm also taking anti TB drugs and losartan, is it ok to take levothyroxine together with those meds?
Can you do an updated video plz
Phentermine works but keeps me awake. I have to take Ativan to get to sleep.
Be very careful using both stimulants and depressants like that. It's not a great long-term solution.
Ok thx for that. I’ve been taking Contrave since Monday and haven’t noticed much difference at all. It seems that my cravings for sweets may be a little less, but I still eat and don’t feel much difference. I am sleeping more.
Do you have any comments on hair loss on phentermine? As soon as I take it my hair starts coming out & sheds for weeks after
I can’t locate your video on how to properly take phentermine ??
Where can i find the video on how to use phentermine correctly ?
I recently had labs done and my CK levels came back high, my doctor just told me to slow down whatever I’m doing but didn’t give me any explanation. Do any of these medications affect my kidneys? I’ve been trying to loose weight and had no luck.
You've said that you need to sleep more, but hipothiroidism disrupt your sleep, so how can you brake that vicious loop?
I have learned to sleep better by nightly taking about 300 mg. of Melatonin.
In my case i think i tried all, ozempic, mounjaro, topomax, wolbutrin, phentermine. Nothing works now. Which combination can work for me?
Stop putting lard in your beans
I was on phentermine first time in 2019 I lost 25lbs the first month no diet no exercise felt great then I quit .
So I got back on this year April 2022 almost 2 months now only lost 10 lbs been sick 🤕 like every day , low energy , fatigue , mood swing , headaches , can’t sleep , constipation it’s been awful , I need an alternative that my insurance can cover . I’m so over it 😤
I’m not sure what you took, but for me there seemed to be a big difference between the Phentermine tablet and capsule. The tablet gave me similar side effects as you and I didn’t lose any real weight, but do much better on the capsule…it seems to keep my metabolism running and helps with my appetite. Not sure why they seem to be different.
Can we take b12 with folate, iron with folic acid and vit c together safely?
Can you use Metformin in conjunction with LDN? Had OB run labs today for leptin resistance curious to see what my results are.
Hi today is my first day I started phentermine 37.5 . I started palpitation.and heat rate increases. So still I need to continue this medicine?
Cut it in half, when you feel that is not working,do it whole
Dang you know how gasoline burns thur foam .. Make me wonder but eating the newspaper, I felt her on that I use to eat newspaper as a kid
Very helpful, thank you.
Stimulants make me ravenous and shaky. I tried adhd meds and phenyermine and I couldn’t stop eating.
What dosage would you typically start a t3 and metformin regiment at?
Btw I cured my thyroid with only magnesium. Just taking 400-500mg before bed everyday.
I no this is over 2yr ago, but I'm taking magnesium gluconate 500mg 1× a day, and Im starting to feel way better than I did 8 yrs ago.Does the thyroid burn up magnesium?
Is adipex one of these medications,
Adipex is another name for phentermine which is on the list here :)
Is it safe to mix qsymia with contrave? Is it safe to mix metformin with contrave?
My issue is I'm a "emotional eater" So for the past yr I've gained 30 pds due to a very traumatic experience. I need something that will cut my appetite.
Let me tell you what I did. I also am/was an emotional eater. My goal was weight loss PLUS improvement for two diseases. I did a loose form of keto. I eat ALL the meat I want PLUS I eat ALL the low carb veggies I want. The weight began coming off, but since I wanted it to come off faster, I then started doing intermittent fasting. The weight SLID off. I stayed satiated by eating until I gorged. Today I weigh 120. Been 120 for 3 years.
Saxenda to many side affects I couldn’t do it 😥
Can you talk about Topiramate?
How can I get an appointment???????
I’m on ozempic just started
What do I do if no doctor will prescribe me victoza? I’ve only come across ones who will prescribe phentermine and bontril
Keep looking!
@@drwestinchilds how should I ask for it if I’m not diabetic or pre diabetic?
I just got prescribed phendimetrazine?????
How’s it going for you?
Can you use phentermine with saxenda
So I was on phentermine and topermiate for quite some time was around 170 s at 5ft tall and got to 116 with diet and exercise and as I was decreasing to get off I had some side affects so tongue swelling, hair loss , pigmentation on skin, being cold. Stopped topermiate and reduced phentermine and stopped. Weight came back on after 1 year. Now going to start saxenda with phentermine. What do you think of that combo
What about Contrave
Kinda late to the party here but I am trying to lose 50+ lbs after a injury in the military and have had a hard time of it - here is a stupid question what kind of doctor can I go to to get this kind of advise and guidance?
What about Wagovy?
How about Orlistat Xenical?
Those 2 med keep your body from storing fat from foods. Greezy foods in case of a cheat day. They helped me cause I stayed cheating on diets. I don't anymore tho
I take metformin and Phentermine combined
My doctor recommended this but I was afraid of the phentermine. How is it for you
How about all liquids...biocell
What do you think of Topamax
It's okay but not as good as those listed here, at least in my experience.
@@drwestinchilds thank you!
II’ve got my rx for contrave today, It has 8 mg of naltrexone in it. You work up to 4 pills a day. That would be 32 mg of naltrexone. Is that too much in one day?
What would you recommend for a 10 lbs weight loss? My current levels are good, including the free t3/ reverse t3 but I’m a little heavier than pre rai...also my a1c is 5.1 so I don’t know how to even bring it up to my pcp.
Take vitamin b12 shot methyl cabolimin w/MIC he talks about it in his other video
10 lbs. only ? I would recommend self love 💕 and self acceptance. Better yet God's love. If all you have to lose is 10lbs it probably isn't even affecting your health and it surely should not be affecting any sane person's acceptance of you. If someone else is not accepting you because you need to lose 10lbs.then I would question that person's character.
I lost around 15 pounds because of Hashimoto's; is that normal?
I want a magic pill but I’m kinda thinkin’ that is a want that goes way back in humanity’s evolution and we are fatter than we have ever been.
I clicked right away
Informative but does he have to talk so fast?
You can slow down the playback speed.
Is saxenda an injection
Yes.
I was on Victoza for six months. Total waste of money.
If I could (or wanted to) diet and exercise, why would I need this medications? Obesity is on thing that the medical community just doesn't have a clue about. They can replace your heart but have no solid plan on weight loss.
If the official "treatment" for obseity is diet and excersise.........why don't medical facilities have gyms and trained professionals on site and covered by insurance? We could go there every day and workout with trained professionals teaching us what excersises will help us to reach our goals.
I'm on wellbutrin they said it helps with weightloss but it's a Depression medication
Did the Wellbutrin help? I’m Considering starting on it.
Took naltrexone compounded was on highest dose for 6 months did not help me
❤
❤️
Old info
There isn't much covered for people that need it! I know because I am diabetic let alone am over weight! I can't even get bariatric surgery let alone was chewed and spit out like trash for needed help cuz I went through this the wrong way was told to find out the root of the problem I did had to throw out all equal Splenda sweet and low sugar and white flour wheat and rye and go with sugar free and then chickpea noodles I been following it and will and now the pharmacy claimed they never received the contavre that the only one covered with me and nothing else is so I had to be taken off the Phenatrime and only lost 5 lbs and disappointed but now am fighting it cuz no meds were called or anything told deal with it from other ppl I am and I am ready and it where I been eating the correct way to and down to 223.3 was at 230
None of them work for long, they all stop in months and you end up fat again. NOT to mention They all have NASTY SIDE EFFECTS.....
so you dont care about the affects on people afterward? ok
Omg. Slow down why are you in such a rush?? If you don’t have time to do a video then don’t do the video watching and listening to you makes me nervous
You know you can adjust the speed of him talking, right?
@@Jan.V.B Wow thank you, I did not know that
How about you convey this politely? Why are you so rude? It’s not all about you. I watched it and got no nervousness at all. Try being nicer for God’s sake. He’s trying to help people. Good lord.
No doctor should prescribe weight loss drugs if you wanna lose weight stop eating that’s simple😂
You are wrong. Over eating is cause by depression medication you can’t do anything about it those psych medications cause over eating
And most people need those medications
So they need other medication to help them
Whole lot of word salad. Are youba Doctor?
Thank you so much 760Plus Credit Score for helping me increase my credit score and delete derogatory remarks. It took just within 2 weeks for them to get my credit back to excellent. Now I've been pre-approved for a mortgage loan and I'm currently home shopping! It's a dream come true and a personal goal accomplished with your help.

Can you take phentermine and metformin . I take metformin for PCOS
My doctor put me on both of those and I have PCOS. Metformin 500 mg and Phentermine 37.5 mg. So far I’ve had a positive experience with steady weight loss and more energy. I also switched to a low carb diet & drink more water.
What about Topiramate?
