Phentermine is the brand name of a popular prescription weight loss drug that comes in pill form. The active ingredient in phentermine is phentermine hydrochloride, which has long been used to effectively aid individuals in losing weight. Phentermine hydrochloride works by providing an immediate boost to the human metabolism, which helps to decrease the total number of calories being taken in each day as well as increasing the body’s capability to burn off larger quantities of fat and calories. Phentermine is a popular diet pill because it helps reduce daily food intake along with helping to increase the body’s basal metabolic rate, or BMR. Decreasing daily calorie intake while increasing calorific burn can help you lose weight both rapidly and more stably than other weight-loss methods. Though phentermine should always be taken under doctor supervision, it provides benefits for many types of patients who seek out quick ways to drop a few extra pounds.

Phentermine is a diet pill that works by stimulating the hypothalamus gland. It also affects certain neurotransmitters, which can significantly decrease your appetite. In fact, phentermine is one of the most popular appetite suppressants on the market today. Phentermine, like Diethylpropion and Phendimetrazine, should be paired with a healthy diet for maximum effect. If you are considering adding one of these supplements in your weight loss program, it is important to have a serious talk with Dr. James Kojian to help you decide which option is right for you. It’s also very important to go through the side effects that may be possible. Having a physician monitor your health is key to making sure your medical weight loss is safe and effective.

Phentermine is a prescription appetite suppressant used to help obese or overweight individuals lose weight, very popular in Pasadena and Los Angeles County. Phentermine helps manage weight by decreasing the appetite and increasing metabolism, thereby reducing fat stored in the body. It is taken as a pill and works by increasing norepinephrine levels in the brain to increase satiety. In combination with a sensible diet and exercise, Phentermine can help users reach their weight loss goals quickly, effectively and safely.

Phentermine has been approved by the FDA as a prescription medication used in the treatment of obesity. Containing three major components, Phentermine contains an amphetamine-like central nervous system stimulant, an antihistamine and a phenethylamine that suppresses appetite. The result is a drug that decreases appetite, burns fat through thermogenics and successfully curbs your cravings for sweets and starches.
