What is Qsymia®?

This prescription contains two medications working as a team. Phentermine suppresses your appetite, while topiramate, first made to treat epilepsy and serious headaches, works differently in your brain. Together, they quiet hunger signals, help you stay satisfied longer during meals, and reduce those constant thoughts about snacking. It’s meant for adults carrying extra weight who also have health issues related to that weight and who’ve tried losing pounds through better habits without long-term success.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this just an appetite suppressant?

It does more than that. The combination works on both reducing hunger and helping you feel full, which tackles weight from two different directions.

How quickly do people typically see results?

Most patients notice appetite changes fairly quickly, with weight coming off gradually over several weeks and months as they stick with the program.

Do I take this forever?

Not necessarily. Your provider monitors your response and, together, decides how long treatment should continue based on your results and health status.

What side effects come up most often?

Dry mouth happens fairly frequently, along with tingling feelings in your fingers or toes, some dizziness, and sleep pattern changes that are usually mild.

Is pregnancy a concern with this medication?

Very much so. It can harm a baby during pregnancy, so you’ll need dependable birth control the whole time you’re on it.

Can I just take the medication without changing my diet?

That won’t give you good results. It works best when paired with eating fewer calories and exercising regularly.

Who shouldn't take this?

People dealing with glaucoma, thyroid problems, or who’ve recently used certain antidepressants aren’t good candidates for this treatment.

How do I know if this is right for me?
