Headache and dry mouth. It can produce side effects consistent with its mechanisms of action - the most major being:tachycardia, increased alertness, but the incidence and magnitude of these appear to be less than with the amphetamines. Because phentermine acts through sympathomimetic pathways, on a long-term basis users of the drug may develop euphoria and a psychological addiction.

I'm taking phentermine and have been for 3 months. The first day I took it I got very bouncy. Like I had to do something. Now that I have been on it, my only side effects are suppression of appetite, which it should do. Only, it does it a LOT, almost completley takes your appetite. I have to seriously force myself to eat. Because I'm just not hungry. But in those three months I have went from a size 20 to a size 14 and couldnt' be happier.

Mine were:
Dry mouth/cotton mouth.
Insomnia coupled with exhaustion
Hot flashes/sensitivity to overheating
Complete loss of interest in food (not just less appetite)
I really didn't get any energy boost.
Best month: 18 lbs.

I am having excruciating headaches that come on suddenly. The pain makes my head feel like it is going to explode. It last about five minutes then leaves me with a headache for awhile but the pain is not as bad. I sweat, and get dizzy and weak feeling. I also get nauseated.

Loss of appetite and drug dependence are main side effects.
