I originally started taking Phentermine for a short term weight loss medication but, I have continued taking it for my ADHD. I am not severely overweight ( I could always lose ten pounds and look better ) I have my blood taken every 3-6 mos. I have never had blood pressure problems or any additional side effects. I am definitely more focused and capable of staying on track with the medication. I was concerned about the long term effects and asked my pharmacist who assured me I should be fine. Is there a reason for me NOT to take this longterm?View Thread
