Can PHENTRALENE affect blood pressure or heart rate?
In some cases, PHENTRALENE may increase your blood pressure as well as heart rate. You should make certain to see your doctor as directed for regular follow-up visits. Your blood pressure and pulse should be measured prior to starting therapy with PHENTRALENE and should be monitored at regular intervals thereafter. If you experience an increase in blood pressure or heart rate while taking PHENTRALENE, your doctor may decide to decrease the dose or discontinue PHENTRALENE. If you have high blood pressure that is controlled by medication or diet, your doctor may choose to prescribe PHENTRALENE for you as part of a comprehensive weight-management program. PHENTRALENE should not be taken by people who have uncontrolled or poorly controlled high blood pressure.
