Obesity
"I have taken Bontril on and off for 5 years now.  A year on, a year off.  I would actually get up to one 105 mg a day, plus 3-35mg tabs each day.  I am 49 years old.  I have always had very good blood pressure/even a little on the low side.  My last experience with Bontril has not been good.  My blood pressure has shot up to 152/104.....when I would have 110/70 readings.  I have tried to cut back on the dosage to no avail.  I will have to go off it completely.  I&#039;m disappointed, because I do think it is a great medicine to manage your weight.  I guess the moral to this story is you eventually will reach a point where your body can no longer tolerate it.  I Guess Weight Watchers is my next step."
