Review
Summary |
The formula is not one we can readily recommend for immediate and safe weight loss. Scheduling doctors’ appointments can take time and cost hundreds of dollars. We appreciate prescription based options such as Bontril. But, the product may lead some buyers to experience side effects. Bontril is designed to be used under a doctor’s supervision.

 | Ingredients At A Glance |
|
Bontril is the brand name of a medication called Phendimetrazine. This drug was originally designed as a weight medication, but is similar in chemical composition to an amphetamine. The medicine, stimulates the central nervous system (nerves and brain), which then increases your heart rate and blood pressure. Because Bontril is habit forming, the drug is only used as a short-term supplement to exercise and diet. It is important to note that you can become physically and psychologically dependent on this medication, and withdrawal effects may occur when you stop taking it. It is advised that you talk to your doctor about stopping this medication gradually. Side effects include: allergic reaction, difficulty breathing, irregular heartbeat, very high blood pressure and abnormal behavior. If any weight is lost using Bontril, our research shows that it is usually regained shortly after the user discontinues the drug.
* Bontril products do not contain the wildly popular appetite suppressant Hoodia.

 | Website In Focus |
|
We recommend that persons considering purchasing drugs via an Internet pharmacy should exercise good common sense and scrutiny in selecting an Internet pharmacy. It is our opinion that an "Internet pharmacy" site should provide a physical address, in addition to a real telephone number for the company.
Often online pharmaceutical companies claim to place great importance on your inquiry, but tend to mostly want to just make a sale. Numerous spam emails are sent daily claiming to be selling real medications, but can you be for sure?
Be advised that, web sites offering to sell you prescription medications "without a prescription" or "without requiring a doctor visit" are not in compliance with the requirements of the federal Controlled Substances Act.
One of the most curious parts of these types of companies, is it seems wants customers to believe that they may be affiliated with a medical company or even a doctor.

 | Details |
Phendimetrazine tartrate, as the dextro isomer, has the chemical name of (+)-3,4-Dimethyl-2-phenylmorpholine Tartrate.
The structural formula is as follows:
Phendimetrazine tartrate is a white, odorless powder with a bitter taste. It is soluble in water, methanol and ethanol.
Bontril Slow-Release capsules contain FD&C Yellow No. 6 as a color additive.
Phendimetrazine tartrate is a sympathomimetic amine with pharmacological activity similar to the prototype drugs of this class used in obesity, the amphetamines. Actions include central nervous system stimulation and elevation of blood pressure. Tachyphylaxis and tolerance have been demonstrated with all drugs of this class in which these phenomena have been looked for.
Drugs of this class used in obesity are commonly known as "anorectics" or "anorexigenics". It has not been established, however, that the action of such drugs in treating obesity is primarily one of appetite suppression. Other central nervous system actions or metabolic effects may be involved.

 | Final Thoughts |
|
We have seen many online sites try to sell pharmaceuticals. Companies more and more it seems, believe that by simply suggesting that you follow their “procedure” that they can sell a product online. The way these sites go about business is often to recommend, that customers not take the new drug before they have a complete physical. After this, the site then often asks the customer to waive the requirement for a physical and then to agree to have a physical before taking the drug, they purchased online. Sound confusing and a bit surreptitious, we think so too. Note, that an “after the fact physical” does not legally take the place of establishing a good doctor to patient relationship.
The Bontril formulation even if it was prescribed by a doctor, has too many unpleasant side effects to recommend. Bontril by design is an incomplete formulation and does not even contain Hoodia. Without an active modern appetite suppressant, we do not find Bontril to be a complete product. Its focus is not on a combination of fat burning and appetite suppressing ingredients as are most effective products.
WE DO NOT RECOMMEND BONTRIL BECAUSE OF IT'S UNDESIRABLE SIDE EFFECTS
