Is It Safe To Have Phentermine To Keep Weight Under Control Post Gall Bladder Surgery?
hi I've had my gallbladder removed and i have gained weight consistently since having it out. I also have hypothyroidism, i was prescribed phentermine before my gallbladder surgery to keep my weight under control, but since the surgery i have been off it. Would it be safe to take it again?

YES YOU CAN START PHENTERMINE,AGAIN .IT IS A APPETITE SUPPRESSANT ,WORKS ,WITH EXERCISE , PROPER NON FAT DIET ,WHEIGHT GAIN IS NOT DUE TO SURGERY.IT IS DUE TO DIET ,LACK OF EXERCISE & HYPOTHYROID. CHECK YOUR BLOOD FOR TSH.TAKE 2-3 LITRES OF WATER DAILY .DO EXERCISE REGULARLY TAKE LOW FAT DIET ,LOW SALT WITH FRUITS &SALADS
