How does this medication affect my blood pressure? I have hypertension so I cannot take it if it could cause a sudden increase in blood pressure.

Hi Sandra, according to medline plus this is intended as a short term medication to aid in weight loss. Under the special precautions it also says to tell your doctor if you have high blood pressure. Is your weight mgmt physician aware of your blood pressure? If they are and still feel that it is safe for you to take over a short term then I'd just pay attention to how you feel while taking it and let them know of any side effects, such as:

- dry mouth
- unpleasant taste
- restlessness
- anxiety
- dizziness
- depression
- tremors
- upset stomach
- vomiting
- increased urination

More serious:
* fast or irregular heartbeat
* heart palpitations
* blurred vision
* skin rash
* itching
* difficulty breathing
* chest pain
* fainting
* swelling of the ankles or feet
* fever
* sore throat
* chills
* painful urination

Hope this helps and good luck!

I have lost a lot of weight with this medication. I was started on 25mg once a day then 25mg x 2 in the morning and the weight started to really come off then. Another med that helped me lose weight was Phentermine and it was a powerhouse! I lost over 100 pounds on it but I built tolerance and was changed to diethylpropion which helped too.
