Weight Loss
"I have been on phentermine for about 6 months and I am now almost 40 pounds down. I have major side effects that I never got before. I have extreme hair loss and I have some bald patches in my head, I just turned 28! My doctor isn&#039;t concerned at all and states it&#039;s just a side effect and wants to &quot;wean&quot; me off so I don&#039;t &quot;withdrawal &quot; after being on it for 6 months. My nails grow cracked now and I have to apply layers and layers of nail polish to keep them from braking and bending. It&#039;s awful, I even had to cut my long hair just to avoid my hair falling out so much. I&#039;m scared to take showers, brush my hair and even run my ringers through it since my hair falls out in chunks. Irreversible alopecia is not something I want"
