Adipex-P weight loss results greatly depend on how closely you follow the weight loss plan given to you. Each month during your weight loss journey, you’ll visit MediPlan Diet Services for a one-on-one conversation with a doctor or nurse practitioner. Here, you can discuss, in detail, your successes and your issues with your diet, exercise plan, your past medical history and current feelings regarding your health and fitness.
How Should I Take Adipex-P?
As always, you should follow the advice of your doctor for dosing instructions. Typically, we recommend starting the day with a good breakfast (around 7:00 am), then taking your daily dose around 9:00 am. It is recommended you take the medicine on an empty stomach with a full glass of water.
If you find you are having difficulty sleeping or feeling hungry later in the evening, you should contact your doctor to discuss other options.
It is important to talk with your doctor about other medications you may be taking at the same time as you are taking Adipex-P.
