Buying Adipex Without a Prescription
Adipex-P
® (
phentermine) is a prescription medication approved for short-term use as a weight-loss aid. However, Adipex is chemically related to amphetamines and has the potential to be abused. Because this drug is a controlled substance, there are more strict rules for obtaining it, and there are more strict fines and penalties for using or trying to buy Adipex without a prescription.
Without a Prescription, Can I Buy Adipex?
Sadly, the answer is yes. However, it is not legal to do so. Adipex is to be dispensed only to people with a prescription and only for a legitimate medical purpose. It is illegal to buy Adipex without a prescription, and it is illegal to sell or give your Adipex to someone else. Doing any of these things is against federal (and most state) laws, and you can be prosecuted under both.
Some Web sites claim to offer a legitimate Adipex prescription after an "online consultation." However, this medication can only be prescribed by appropriately licensed medical professionals who have a legitimate medical relationship with their patients. An online consultation is not considered a legitimate medical relationship, and it is not legal to obtain Adipex in this manner.
Before deciding to obtain Adipex without a prescription, you should understand the limits of this drug's effectiveness. Adipex belongs to a group of medications that begin to lose their effectiveness for weight control after just a few weeks (this is why these medications are approved for short-term use only). Also, studies have shown that these medications increase weight loss, but only by a small amount (only a fraction of a pound per week).
