USES: Adipex is used as an appetite suppressant in conjunction with an overall diet plan to reduce weight.

HOW TO TAKE THIS MEDICATION: Adipex is best taken on an empty stomach one hour before meals. Because this medication may cause sleeplessness so avoid taking a dose late in the day. Use only as prescribed. Do not take Adipex more often or longer than directed.

SIDE EFFECTS: Dry mouth, sleeplessness, irritability, stomach upset or constipation may occur the first few days as your body adjusts to the medication. Inform your doctor if these effects persist or become bothersome.

PRECAUTIONS: Be sure to give your doctor your complete medical history especially if you have high blood pressure, an over-active thyroid, glaucoma, diabetes or emotional problems. Always Consult with your doctor if you think you are pregnant or before breast-feeding. Alcohol can increase unwanted side effects of dizziness. Limit alcohol use. Adipex is not recommended for use in children. Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you require further information.

DRUG INTERACTIONS: Be sure to inform your doctor about all the medicines you use, (prescription and nonprescription) especially if you take high blood pressure medicine or MAO inhibitors (e.g., furazolidone, phenelzine, selegiline, tranylcypromine) or any other weight loss medicine. Decongestants are often found in over-the-counter cough and cold medicine.

NOTES: Do not substitute appetite suppressants for a proper diet. For maximum effects, this must be used in conjunction with a diet and exercise program and do not share this medication with others.

MISSED DOSE: If you miss a dose of Adipex, do not double the next dose. Instead, skip the missed dose and resume your usual dosing schedule.

STORAGE: Store at room temperature away from sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.
