What Causes Ankle Swelling Reduction And Better Breathing After Stopping Adipex?
I have been taking Losatan 100-25 MG and Amlodipine Besylate and started Adipex for weight loss. After two weeks and reducing Adipex to 1/2 pill twice daily my ankles swelled, joint aches and found it hard to breathe. Stopped Adipex when suffering breathing problems. Am I in danger, doctor said should be ok, but three days later, ankle swelling reduced, breathing better but sore and achy.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It is one of the side effect of medicine but need not worry it will settle down as your body adjust to the change. Increase your fluid intake to detox.
