PHENTERMINE is a contraction of the chemical name "phenyl-tertiary-butylamine", and is a well known and proven prescription appetite suppressant of the amphetamine and phenethylamine class. Phentremine is not.
Phentermine is an appetite suppressant to help reduce weight in obese patients when used short-term and combined with diet, exercise and behavioral modification. It is typically prescribed for individuals who are at higher medical risk because of their weight. It works by helping to release certain chemicals into the blood stream that work with neurotransmitters to control appetite.
Phentermine is currently sold as a generic and is packaged under the following brand names: Adipex P, Anoxine-AM, Ionamin, Duromine, Fastin, Mirapront, Obephen, Obermine, Obestin-30, Phentrol, Phenterex,, Phentromin, Pro-Fast SA, Redusa, Panbesy, Phentermine Trenker, Obenix, Oby-Trim, and Teramine.
Phentermine is still available by itself in most countries, including the U.S. However, because it is similar to amphetamines, individuals may develop an addiction to it. It is therefore classified as a controlled substance in many countries and requires a doctor's prescription.
PHENTREMINE is the imposter half-sister unfairly riding on the fame and reputation of it's older sibling. A closer look at Phentremine reveals that it is simply Hoodia Gordoni in fancy clothes. There are some additional herbal supplements in the ingredients including 417% of the recommended daily intake of Vitamin B12!
Hoodia Gordonii is widely available over the internet, does not require a doctor's prescription and has had some positive reviews as an all natural appetite suppressant. Hoodia dressed up as phentremine is very, very expensive at a whopping $85.00. There is nothing necessarily wrong with using Hoodia in your weight loss program as long as that is what you intend to do. Many people are tricked into buying phentremine over the internet thinking that they are buying phentermine.
