Confused 101, there is no way to buy fastin or phentermine on the internet. It must come from your dr. I have been on and off phentermine (generic for fastin) for about 3 months now and have lost 26.3 lbs! The only real side effect of this medicine is a dry mouth, but since drinking lots of water is so important to weight loss, this isn't a bad thing! Not am I only drinking water now (impressive for a former Dr Pepper addict) I am eating healthy and exercising regularly. These are things that are key to losing the weight. I am making very important life changes that will make keeping the weight I lose off permanently. Give your dr a call and ask him about the rx version. Some drs wont give it to you, but if you check out some weight loss clinics, you can probably find a dr who will if you really want it.Read More Read Less

I'm trying to understand. I bought "fastin" online. It has no phentermine, it has something else. Has anyone purchased this, and how did it work for you. People here seem to have gotten theirs from the Dr. I want to know if this knock-off is crap or what. I'll check back daily. I wanted to start tomorrow, but noticed the ingredients were way different. Only 1 other person said this knock-off was garbage. I need to hear from a few other people. Good luck everyone.

I have used fastin off & on for the past 5 years. I love it! You have to force yourself to eat. The energy it gives you is GREAT. But once you get off it (at least for me) you get your old habbits back. My doc will only give it to me 3 months at a time, so I don't take it every day. I found that eat a light break fast early in the morning & taking fastin right at 1030 am, I don't have to eat anything else the rest of the day! Makes you drink lots of water. Would recommend to anyone!

I love this pill. Since taking it my heartbeat has doubled, but that doesn't bother me as much anymore. I also had troubles going to sleep at night becuase my blood was pounding through my body. But every since I started taking it, I can wake up in the morning and not have to have four cups of coffee. I don't have sleeping troubles anymore because I don't bother going to sleep at night. For the last week I have been averaging three hours a night of sleep, and yet when I wake up I am fully awake... I feel completely rested. It also surpresses my appetite. I have to force myself to eat because I am never hungry, which I love not being hungry. I also have lost about 10 pounds and I have been on Fastin for a week and half.Read More Read Less

After quitting smoking 1 1/2 years ago, I really put on some pounds, and couldn't get them off no matter what I tried. This medicine is everything that I could hope for as far as aiding me in losing the weight so far. I have been on it for 6 days and have lost 7.7 lbs. My energy level is wonderful, I actually WANT to exercise. My appetite is under control, I don't feel like I have to eat all the time. I still fight a little bit of the bad habit of snacking and eating things that aren't good for you, but seeing the results I am getting so fast make eating better and trying to get healthier a lot easier. My confidence level is growing with every pound I drop. I hope this continues to work this same way. If it doesn't I will come back on here and let you know.Read More Read Less

There is a version of this diet pill online that you can order through a website that promotes FASTIN it is NOT the real deal. It has something called Nuphedine not Phentermine so it doesn't work. Made by Hi Tech Pharmacuticals...don't WASTE your money on this PILL it's like 89.00 and with shipping comes to about 100.00 it's a joke. It can make you a bit jittery but it doesn't suppress appetite or provide energy. It's just like you had a too many cups of coffee with the jitters it sucks.

I was 20 lbs over weight and added another 30lbs when I quit smoking. I had become discussed with myself and tried all the diet pills advertised, none of them worked at all. I finally went to my Doctor and ask for something to get this weight off, he prescribed fastin. I have been on fastin for 1 month and have lost 29 lbs. I have been eating fresh fruit and vegetable adding up to about 600 calories a day. I also work out, 5 times a week,1 hour a day on my bowflex. My doctor said take fastin for 2 months and then 1 off, then 1 back on. I hoping to lose another 20 lbs. I highly recommend talking to your doctor about fastin before wasting all your money on diet pill scams. I have notice on these reviews the fastin that has worked for people have been prescribed by a doctor. Good luck !!!!!!!! Read More Read Less

I have been taking Phentermine for a month and it is amazing. I lost 22 lbs so far. I started taking Fastin and it gives you much more energy then Phentermin alone. I make sure to keep a healty diet and work-out.

I've been on phentermine 37.5 in the past and lost weight successfully. Unfortunately, I had major back surgery in 5/08, and have gained back 30 lbs due to lack of mobility. My former doctor retired - does anyone have a recommendation for a doctor in the Boston area who would prescribe Fastin/ phentermine?

This is a miracle drug if you are trying to lose weight. I took this about 10yrs ago for about a year and I lost over 100lbs. I have never been able to lose weight by any other method until I tried this one. I LOVE IT, I had energy I went from sitting on my rear most of the day to exercising daily (my house stayed clean) I was no longer depressed, I felt good about myself and had a positive outlook on life. I have regained weight over the years. Today, I'm an overweight depressed divorced mother of one son 6yr old. I cry all the time because of my weight and the feeling of not being able to do with my son. I feel like I have let him down since my weight gain, and no it just didn't happen over night but I'm 5'2" and every pound shows on me. If you are lucky and want to lose weight and able to get this medication DO IT you will NOT regret it. If I could find a doctor around here that prescribed it I would in a heartbeat, but I can't find one....SO my life will stay as it is right now!!! GOOD LUCK TO ANY OF YOU THAT WANT TO TRY IT OR HAVE TRIED IT WITH SUCCESS!!!Read More Read Less

I started this medication at the beginning of November 2008 and have lost 30 lbs. to date. I was given a three month prescription and have taken it for a month and then been off of it for a month until I run out. I was still able to keep my portion control during my off months and lost just as much weight as I did the first month on. I work out 3-5 times a week doing a structured weight lifting schedule, abs, and at least 30 minutes of cardio. A year before I decided to take the medicine, I was working out consistently with a trainer and wasn't seeing a lot of weight loss, but did see some inches lost. This has given me a good jump start and I still have about 40 pounds to lose before I hit my healthy weight. The only side effect I had was the dry mouth but drinking water or chewing gum helps immensely with that. Read More Read Less

I just started taking Fastin this week and I can already see a huge difference in my energy level. After work, I used to go home and veg...all evening. Last night (day TWO on the med) I went home and spent two hours organizing my basement! I also wake up much easier and feeling far more rejuvenated than I have in a long time. I'd love to lose 50-60 pounds that have crept up on me following the birth of my child, a hysterectomy, various meds with "possible weight gain" as a side effect, and several years of stress. I'll report back in a couple of weeks on the weight loss end of things...but so far so good!Read More Read Less

I started taking this drug last Wednesday after telling my Dr. at a well woman physical, that after losing 17.4 lbs. earlier in the year I had not been able to lose any more since labor day. I had upped my exercise routine and adjusted my eating habits even more to try and lose but nothing was working. She suggested this pill and so far I have more energy and can control my eating even better. I'm excited to see if it continues to help. I need to lose another 70 lbs to be where I weighed most of my life. I really want that back!! Read More Read Less

After having my daughter I was overweight. I had never weighed as much as I did until after I had her. When I went to my doctor I had asked her about over the counter pills for weight loss. She said if I was worried about my weight she would prescribe me something. So she prescribed fastin. Said that I could take it for a total of 6 months and to make an appt. once a month so she could monitor how I was doing on it and to make sure my blood pressure was alright and that I could continue to take it. Which everyhthing was fine so I continued to take it for a total of 5 months. I lost a total of 50 pounds! I was so amazed with this product. It's the best around and it works. I had no problems with it. It curved my appetite and I had energy. This is truely a "miracle pill" for weight loss! I highly recommend it! Read More Read Less

I started taking this RX in September,15th and today November 30th,I weigh 21 lbs less and feel great, I can actually run up the stairs where before I had to hang on to the railing just to walk upstairs,the only thing is that my doctor won't prescribe anymore, because this drug can be addicting. Will use it again in four months, have to give the body a break.
