Question : what is the interaction between phentermine hcl and levothyroxin, and enalapril
Brief Answer:
Not significant
Detailed Answer:
To the best of my knowledge there is no major interaction between these medications.
However, few things ought to be kept in mind while taking these three medications:
1 Levothyroxine must be taken 60 minutes before breakfast on empty stomach with water. Any other beverage or food or pills should be taken 60 minutes after levothyroxine
2 Phentermine can occasionally raise blood pressure and pulse So monitoring these closely is essential while taking it
3 Enalapril is typically used to treat high blood pressure. So stay in touch with your health care provider to see if dose adjustments are required while on phentermine
