Global Patient Feedback for Bontril (Phendimetrazine)

Please see our forum guidelines.


I am on Lyrica, Ms-Contin, Methadone, Topamax, & Prestiq so all of that makes me pretty tired. I am also 50 Lbs overweight with back problems. My doctor put me on this pill because I didn't like Addepex. I have been taking it a 1 1/2 Mo. & have so much energy & I have lost 14 lbs. I'm not active because of 9 neck & back surgeries. I just love not sleeping 20 hours a day anymore. I feel like I have my life back!

I have been g this medication for 12 days. The first 7 days I lost 5.5lbs. I feel great and have more energy. It is important to drink a lot of water and to walk the 30min a day. I hope that this continue to work for me.I am 60lb overweight and would love to lose half of it. I recommend this product because I have seen it work for others.

This diet pill is the best weight lose solution I have ever tried! I have not ever had a problem with weight until I got prego with my son. I gained a whopping 72 lbs while I was prego. I had an extremely hard time losing it after. I breast fed for 18mo and that didnt help! I joined a gym, but I have asthma so I am unable to excersize as much as I needed to. I also tried every over the counter diet pill there is. So finally I asked my doc if there were any prescription diet pills. He gave me this one. That was 3 months ago. I have lost 38lbs now and am back at my pre pregnancy weight! I have not experianced any bad side effects. The only thing I have experianced was a lot more energy. Which I liked. In the first few days I did have trouble sleeping but this was only temporary. Just make sure you drink plenty of water. I stay away from fruit juices, absolutley no soda, no energy drinks, only an occasional starbucks! Mostly I drink water. I also make sure I eat normally just small portions. You want to make sure you are not starving yourself, or when you stop taking the drug, you may just gain it back. Eat as you would if you were not taking it so your body will be re trained. I also have had 4 friends take this as well and they too have had great results and no harmful side effects! This medicine can be expensive but luckily my insurance covers it! So I only have to pay $8/mo for it. I would pay full price if my insurance didnt cover it, it is totally worth the price! I also did walk 30 mins per day for the 1st month but then stopped and I have done no excersize since. Contrary to the previous entry I do take the generic form and its works great! Everyone is different though. I would no doubt recommend this drug! Good luck to all of you!
