Interactions

Because TENUATE RETARD are monoamines, hypertension may result when either agent is used with monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors. The efficacy of diethylpropion with other anorectic agents has not been studied and the combined use may have the potential for serious cardiac problems; therefore, the concomitant use with other anorectic agents is contraindicated.

Antidiabetic drug requirements (i.e., insulin) may be altered. Concurrent use with general anesthetics may result in arrhythmias. The pressor effects of diethylpropion and those of other drugs may be additive when the drugs are used concomitantly; conversely, diethylpropion may interfere with antihypertensive drugs (i.e., guanethidine, a-methyldopa). Concurrent use of phenothiazines may antagonize the anorectic effect of diethylpropion.

Dosage

TENUATE RETARD is usually taken by mouth, one hour before meals, 3 times a day, or as directed by your medical practitioner. If late-night eating becomes problematic for some, he/she may advise you to take another dose in the evening as well.

It is important to follow the medication according to the doctor’s prescription and it should also be taken each day at the same time so that you won’t forget a dose. The whole pill should be swallowed without chewing/crushing and make sure to avoid taking other appetite suppressants as it might cause unwanted side effects.

After starting this medication, some weight loss will be visible. But if you do not seem to have lost at least 4 pounds within a 4 weeks time period, your doctor should be informed about it.
