Dr is baffled also on why I am not losing and that all my blood tests are clean....no insulin problems and no thyroid problems and still no change in the scale or the tape measure in over a month.

so he is prescribing this as a 1/2 dose a day no more than a month.

anyone else ever try it or go on it with success?

    Just be careful...there are a lot of negative side effects to this med.....irregular heartrate, dizziness, nasuea. It also stops working after talking it for a period of time...Good luck.

    I have taken it for 2 1/2 months and I have lost 23 lbs. It helps with the cravings but to be honest some of the girls at work are just using MFP and are having great results. Husband lost over 55lbs on the Adipex. It works for the cravings. Neither one of us has had any side affects.

    I used this and it works but like EVERYTHING else you after you stop taking it you gain the weight you loss and a few more pounds back. Not only that but I also had some bad side effects like I could not sleep at night no matter how early I took it in the morning and I still have episodes of tachycardia which only started when I started the med. Everyones body is different, if you choose to take it just be careful! Best wishes!

    maybe I will pick up the RX and have it here on hand and then give it another month of hard work and clean eating and major focus to see if I need it or not. I think I was on it once before years ago but never was ready then to change my lifestyle and lost weight to gain it back...now that I am ready, and my lifestyle is different, the weight won't budge....go figure
