Dextroamphetamine is a stimulant medication. Weight loss, insomnia, tachycardia, and hypertension are all possible complications.

There is a patch dosage form of dextroamphetamine available called Xelstrym. I discuss it on this episode.

Vitamin C can reduce GI absorption of dextroamphetamine due to its ability to increase the acidity of the GI tract.

Phentermine Pharmacology Podcast

In this podcast episode, I break down the pharmacology, adverse effects, pharmacokinetics, and drug interactions of phentermine.

Phentermine has some CNS stimulant activity so adverse effects like insomnia, hypertension, and tachycardia are possible.

Pay attention to drugs that can oppose the effects of phentermine and cause weight gain such as mirtazapine and sulfonylureas.

Phentermine is a controlled substance so the risk of addiction and dependence is possible.
