Adult dose

Adults: Administer 37.5 mg of phentermine hydrochloride orally once daily, before breakfast or 1 ～ 2 hours after breakfast. Use the lowest effective dose, adjusting it individually to achieve an adequate response. A dose of 18.75 mg once daily may be appropriate for some patients, while in some cases it may be preferable to take 18.75 mg twice daily. Avoid taking this medicine late at night because it may cause insomnia. This medicine should be administered for a short period (up to 4 weeks). However, to reduce the risk of inappropriate use and associated risks, treatment may be continued if the patient achieves satisfactory weight loss within the first 4 weeks (weight loss of at least 1.8 kg or weight loss considered satisfactory by both the physician and the patient).

This medication should not be used with other appetite suppressants and should only be used alone for a short duration. Since this medication may be associated with serious cardiovascular conditions such as primary pulmonary hypertension and valvular heart disease, any symptoms such as shortness of breath during exercise, chest pain, or edema should be reported to a physician immediately.

During treatment, side effects such as anxiety, dizziness, insomnia, palpitations, and elevated blood pressure may occur, and if symptoms are severe, consultation with a healthcare provider is advised. In cases of overdose, severe neurological abnormalities, heart problems, and gastrointestinal symptoms may occur, requiring immediate emergency treatment. This medication has the potential for psychological dependence and abuse, so it is essential to adhere strictly to prescribed dosages and duration, as sudden discontinuation may lead to fatigue and depression.
