Can any doctor prescribe phentermine?

If you have obesity, which is defined as a BMI of 30 or higher, a healthcare provider may prescribe phentermine.

It is only allowed for short-term usage in obese people when used in conjunction with a diet and activity programme. However, many doctors believe that prescribing phentermine to patients for long-term use is safe. Phentermine (Adipex-P) is a relatively affordable appetite suppressant. It is more popular than similar medications. It comes in both generic and brand names. Most Medicare and insurance companies do not cover it, however pharmacy coupons can help with the cost.
