 3  Weight Loss 1st time: Weight loss! Very little appetite. 2nd time: Ran into a problem. The first time I took this drug, was great! I had energy, but no jitters or felt like my heart was gonna fly outta my chest. Almost no appetite, I had to make myself eat sometimes. and I lost weight. Quit taking them for financial & other reasons. I kept eating healthy and working out 95% of the time; Didn't gain any weight back! The 2nd time I took Tenuate starting in Feb. 2008, has been not so satisfying to my dismay. This time taking it was to help with the energy and to lose the remainder of my weight. I feel like I'm on an emotional rollercoaster! The slightest thing and I'll start crying. I have the worst headache, I thought was due to sinuses but even taking my allergy medicine didnt make a dent in the headache. I just feel sad a lot lately. My mother had to quit taking the tenuate for the same reason. So I tried not taking them for a few days, and after two days of no tenuate I felt better- Not nearly as emotional and especially over the littlest things. Then I decide I' F 24 2 days

 4  weight loss talking a bit more than usual, more motivated and energetic than usual, more peeing than usual. Maybe I was retaining water and did not know it. I dont fall asleep as easily. This stuff WORKS! I have only been taking it for 4 days * (started on 9/27/06) and I have lost 4 lbs . No craving, no hunger. My BIG concern though is about the possibility of heart valve damage . I took those pondimon, fen-phen weight loss pills back in the 90's and developed heart valve problems and pulmonary hypertension. Both conditions are in the mild stage. I have read that it is possible Tenuate can cause similar damage but not confirmed. I am not sure I want to risk having open heart surgery because of taking a diet pill. I may stop taking this .

 4  weight loss The first couple of days I had trouble falling asleep. However no problems with side effects. I have only been taking tenuate 75mg once in the morning for the past 4 days now & have lost 3 pounds. I'm very excited about this as I have tried very hard to lose weight for the past several years. I'm starting to have hope again & feel alive . I have 30lbs to lose and would like to know if this will continue working for me as my doctor said I can only take for a few weeks. F 43 4 days

 3  weight loss Hunger pangs after doses, a few mild hallucinations, a bit of leg pain and high energy. I feel hungry & get stomache aches and mild diarrhea. A few days of feeling high sensation. BETTER focus. First day to 3rd day, I only took half a pill once to twice a day because I was worried I'd get anxious. Last 2 days i've taken my dose of 2 full pills a day. I always feel hunger pangs after taking it like it's instantly burning any food I had in my stomach. I dont like feeling hungry because I eat a lot within 30 minutes of taking it, except for yesterday and today, I ate much less. I HAVE NOT drank my favorite soda or any soda in 4 days. I haven't ate my favorite chips in 5 days but I still feel hunger pangs frequently except for yesterday and today. I like not feeling anxious on it. I have lost 2 lbs in 5 days! I'll update you all in the future. F 42 5 days

 5  Weight Loss Not sleeping, heaving, tongue like a feather duster! Less hunger pains, spooky feeling, wided eyed, dreaming... I really don't care about the side effects as this works and after a week I can already feel a difference. Don't want to weigh myself till after a month being on the tablets, then its a nice surprise. Done these before and the after results were amazing. Keep it up and good luck everyone. F 41 6 days

 3  For being overweight Very lively & full of energy. The tablets also controlled my appetite - at first! With longer use, I found that the tablets weren't working as appetite suppressants, but I carried on taking them because of their incredible feel-good factor. I stopped taking them because I realised the potential addiction. My doctor prescribed 3 tablets a day, which was impossible for me to tolerate. Just half a tab was enough to stem my appetite and give me energy, but I think they should be re-introduced for weight loss, providing careful examinations are given to patients first. I took this medication during the 80's until they were withdrawn. F 51 6 days

 4  to lose weight extreme increase in energy, slight discomfort, grinding my teeth. I have only been taking tenuate dospan for a week, and I have already lost 2 kilos, I dont feel like eating anymore, I use to have around 5 meals a day, I was very unhealthy, with Tenuate Dospan I only eat 1 small meal and a bowl of cereal a day, and I feel great, the only thing that scares me is my heart rate, and my nervousness, but they are only minor side effects. I would recommend this tablet to anyone who is trying to lose weight F 18 7 days
