Phentermine and Xenical

June 3, 2009

When trying hard to lose weight its hard to deny that there are some great diet pills out there that can help the process along.  Personally, I have been interested in Phentermine which is supposed to be used in the short-term and combined with exercise, diet, and behavioral modification.  

First a bit of history: Phentermine first received approval from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1959 as an appetite suppressant for the short-term treatment of obesity.  It became available in the United States in 1959 and then Phentermine Hydrochloride in the early 1970s.  It works by changing your brain levels of serotonin and causes a suppressed appetite, controlled hunger, and general feeling of stimulation. It also works outside the brain as well to release epinephrine or adrenaline causing fat cells to break down stored fat, but the principal basis of efficacy is hunger-reduction.  

Phentermine is great for a number of reasons.  It’s cheaper than the other major FDA-approved diet drugs and it has documented success stories unlike many diet pills.  When used short term, it helps to jump start weight loss into a healthier plan of diet and exercise, and you can slso buy it generic which is cheaper than name brand.  The active ingredient in Phentermine is Phentermine Hydrochloride (HCL), along with a host of non-active ingredients and you need to take one capsule approximately 2 hours after breakfast for appetite control.  It’s recommended that you incorporate diet and exercise into your weight loss plan when taking Phentermine.  

Xenical is another great diet pill.  It acts by blocking some of the fat that you eat from being absorbed by your body and when used together with a reduced-calorie diet, it is an effective tool for weight maintenance and treating people with risk factors such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol or triglycerides.  It is also indicated to reduce the risk for weight regain after previous weight loss.
