Uses?
Tenuate is used as an appetite
suppressant. It is used in conjunction with an overall diet plan
to reduce weight.
Tenuate Directions?
Take on
an empty stomach, once daily, 30-60 minutes before breakfast. Do
not increase your dose or take it more often than prescribed
because this drug can be habit forming. Also, if used for a
longer period of time, do not suddenly stop this medication
without first consulting your doctor. This medication is usually
taken for 8 to 12 weeks.
Tenuate Side Effects?
Side
effects, which may go away during usage, include restlessness,
nervousness, difficulty sleeping, or dry mouth. If you
experience side effects that continue or are annoying or
troubling, consult with your doctor. If you notice other effects
not listed above, contact your doctor, or pharmacist.
Tenuate Waringins?
Tenuate
may impair your ability to concentrate, remember, or pay
attention to important things. Everyday things such as driving a
car, using the can opener, and just being physically and
mentally coordinated might seem like a challenge. Do not do
anything important or engage in any potentially hazardous
activities until you are familiar with the drug.
Do not drive, operate machinery, or do
anything else that could be dangerous until you know how you
react to this medicine. Before you have any medical or dental
treatments, emergency care, or surgery, tell the doctor or
dentist that you are using this medicine. For women: this
medicine is excreted in breast milk. If you are or will be
breast-feeding while you are using this medicine, check with
your doctor or pharmacist to discuss the risks to your baby.
Tenuate Drug Interactions?
Tenuate
should not be used while taking (or less than 14 days after
taking) a monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor. This could result
in extreme high blood pressure and other side effects.
It has been reported that tricyclic
antidepressants enhance amphetamine effects. Using these
medications with diethylpropion may cause high blood pressure or
irregular heartbeat and may decrease the effects of
blood-pressure lowering medications (guanethidine).
Tenuate may alter the effects of diabetic
medication. Tenuate and a barbiturate taken together may
antagonize the effects of both drugs. Sodium bicarbonate (baking
soda) decreases Tenuate
elimination. Ascorbic acid
(vitamin C) increases Tenuate elimination.
The safety and efficacy of combined Tenuate
with
SSRI's and various other
psychotherapeutic agents has not been established.
Tenuate Missed Dose?
If you
miss a dose of Tenuate, take it as soon as possible. If it is
after 4 pm, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular
dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.
Tenuate Storage?
Store it
at room temperature away from heat, light and moisture. Keep
this and all medications out of the reach of children
