How does Phentermine Work

Phentermine weight loss drug works with neurotransmitters in the brain as a centrally-acting stimulant. Phentermine stimulates neuron bundles to release a particular group of neurotransmitters. The activity is due to this effect on the central nervous system about hunger. The neurotransmitters signal a fight response in the body putting a halt to the hunger signal resulting a loss in appetite because the brain does not receive the hunger message.

Phentermine should be taken only for a short time, such as a few weeks. Do not stop using the medication suddenly without first talking to your doctor. You may need to use less and less before you stop the medication completely.
