Phendimetrazine diet pill
Phendimetrazine is a sympathomimetic amine,
which is similar to an amphetamine. Phendimetrazine diet pill
is also known as an "anorectic" or "anorexigenic"
medication. Phendimetrazine stimulates the central
nervous system (nerves and brain), which increases
your heart rate and blood pressure and decreases
your appetite. Phendimetrazine diet pill is recommended
by physicians as a short-term supplement to diet
and exercise in the treatment of obesity.
