Phendimetrazine tartrate is indicated in the management of exogenous obesity as a short term adjunct (a few weeks) in a regimen of weight reduction based on caloric restriction. The limited usefulness of agents of this class (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY) should be measured against possible risk factors inherent in their use such as those described below. (See WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS.)

Usual Adult Dosage

One tablet (35mg) b.i.d. or t.i.d. taken one hour before meals. Dosage should be individualized to obtain an adequate response with the lowest effective dosage. In some cases 1/2 tablet (17.5 mg ) per dose may be adequate. Dosage Should not exceed 2 tablets t.i.d.
