phentermine and increased heart rate

Side effects of phentermine include tingling/prickling in hands/feet, rapid heart rate, increased blood pressure, dry mouth and sleeplessness, among others. The problem with taking drugs to lose weight is that one is likely to gain the weight back when it's stopped, unless there's been a diet change, as well.

Tonight I had to go to the hospital due to rapid heart beat, when I got there my blood pressure was high 200/180 and my heart rate was 210. I told them that the doctor put me on a diet medication and I had lost 33 pounds in a month. They tried to get blood from me and they could not get any it took ten tries. Teat was ran and they said my thyriod was to high my dose is 0.125 and my blood work was 00:55 0.01L.

Your best bet is to actually call the pharmacist. While doctors SHOULD know the answer to this question, pharmacists are better educated about this. The one thing I can tell you about any weight loss drug is that even though they may be safe to take together, anytime I've taken them (or even green tea), my heart rate goes through the roof and I get jittery. So, even if the drugs are safe together, if you notice increased anxiety, this could be why.

s, Ive been to the hosp for 180 heart rate out of the blue, and its beat so fast I cant count. Vagal maneuvers work for me to bring the heartrate down. I have no underlying cardiac problems. I recently also started phentermine 37.5, and have been doing fine with it as far as palps and tachycardia. I still have them from time to time like I normally do but there hasnt been any drastic change with the phentermine on board. Thats not to say that you wont though.

i would like to know if there is any reason why i should not take methimazole and phentermine at the same time and/or if the phentermine could possibly cause my hyperactive thyroidism to return.

After being hypo and hyper, we finally have the meds stabilized. My TSH is 2.38. At night, I experience a pounding and increased heart beat intermittently. It comes and goes. I will be fine for a few weeks, and then it starts again. Occasionally I notice it during the day, too. Is this related to my thyroid medication or something else perhaps? I am also being treated for sleep apnea now with a CPAP machine.

In November of 2008 I started having increased heart rate. It usually starts slow and increases gradually . Normally my heart rate is anywhere between 66 and 78. The increase is to the mid-upper 90's (recently reached 102 about a week ago, but not usually) without physical exertion. I have no other symptoms. It usually occurs before menstruation, near ovulation, after eating or just randomly- It seems. I have been under some stress.

I have been waking up with a sore left arm and shoulder but it is not to bad either. The worst thing is the increased heart rate. I am breathing just fine but something does not feel right. It feels like my heart is just beating to quick. All of these symptoms occur mainly at night but the heart rate issue occurs some during the day to. I do not know if my mind is playing games with me or if something is really going on.

She has been complaining since some time regarding palpitation and sometime feeling of increased heart rate up to 120 beats per minute.She has also had some incidences of Feeling completely drained and feeling ike all her energy has drained out leading to a sort of syncope though concious. She has also been having head aches usaully related to hunger pangs.

I don't know if it's normal or too high but my resting heart rate has been about 95 for the past few weeks.

Thanks, Bill

my blood pressure runs 90/60 and heart rate 60. My grandmother just passed away, went to the funeral, and my blood pressure was running 120/80 and heart rate 90 for about 3 days so far. Not sure when it will be back to normal again. However, it is good to get it checked out to make sure there has not been a change in your heart function. High blood pressure over years, it not good for the heart and blood pressure is a symptom of sometime going on.

My body aches and im tired alot and i have been taking phentermine to help loose weight but i lost 10lbs and thats all.

I have been on phentermine for a little over a month because I had problems shedding post-partum weight, but then found out that I also have hypothyroidism and was prescribed with Levothyroxine (by the same doctor and kept me on phentermine). I was overwhelmed when my pharmacy printed out a long *WARNING OF DRUG INTERACTION* sheet telling me of all the possible side effects etc... I have gone from taking a vitamin a day to 3 prescription drugs, that have possible hazardous interactions.

Hello, I have Hypothyroidism and have been trying to lose 10lbs for the past couple of years, I spoke to a pharmacist and she suggested I ask my doctor for Phentermine. Has anyone tried this before and is it safe with taking Amour Thyroid 180mg. I'm 5'8" and weigh 152 and want to be 143, I work out 6x's a week cardio for 45-60 mins. and every other day 30 mins weight lifting.

These are psycologically addictive but not physically. They can give you a jump in blood pressure, increased heart rate and a heart attack or stroke. I agree with you. I'd change docs. Some of them don't care if they get you addicted. Esp if they have a private practice. It keeps you coming back. I would pitch them.

There are a number of ways a Doctor can help lower your Heart Rate and I have heard of that one. I can also have a tendancy for a fast heart rate but much faster than yours. When mine gets to around 170 or higher, I must bare down as if I were to have a bowl movement. This will generally lower the heart rate. If not, then medical attention is required. Doctors are trained for these types of problems. Did your heart rate come down? Did your Doctor know about the neck injury?

I increased the mph up again until my rate was 134 and finished the 15 minutes and quick. This did not seem normal. Was it really my heart rate, or the monitor?

I think its very important to seek your doctor on this one. I had rapid heart rate with treatment due to anemia and to be sure all was ok they connected me to an EKG. My heart was fine. It went away about week11. It was very scary.

i am a 20 yr old girl and suddenly yest my pulse rate shot up to 135. doc says it shud b arnd 75. n they cud find no apparent reason for d increase in d pulse rate. d ecg showed slight variations but they at 20 yrs its nothing. n the echo reports states "normal". i have no stress or anxiety or tension. but my pulse rate is sustained at 110. can anyone tell me y it could be like this? ps: i am awaiting thyroid test reports.

My doctor and counselor both say that my increased heart rate is not relayed to my anxiety. My doctor said increased heart rate is due to an increases of needed blood to help bring oxygen and nutrients to the baby.

I have been taking Phentermine 37.5 and synthroid .088 for about 4 months now. I just found out a few days ago I am pregnant. I figured I should stop taking the Phentermine but I didn't know if it would have any effects on the baby already. Also I did not know if I can continue to take the synthroid?
