I have taken Phentermine a few times over the years. It bothers my teeth, gums, tongue, and I clench my jaw. The past 3 months, every time I start taking it my tongue goes nuts. It's numb on the end and red. It feels like I have burned it. Now the annoying burning numbness is spreading a little further up my tongue. I stopped a month ago and after taking it for a couple of weeks, it went away so I started back up a week later. It started right back up so after a few days I stopped again. It didn't totally go away that time even after a week. So, 3 days ago I started again (I always start with a 1/2 for the first week) and my tongue is crazy with the numbness and burning. You can even see it's a little redder and a little rougher on the end. I've also had a few vicious canker sores and I don't know if that's connected too?

I drink plenty, I don't do anything to make it worse~ It's obviously the Phentermine.

I guess it's just not for me because it's bad enough to be a little scary. I didn't take one today and I'm going to stop.

UNLESS you know of a cure?

It's scares me because meth users lose their teeth and have gum problems...

I've tried the tabs and the capsules but both do it : (

Sad.

Anyone saying this isn’t a side effect is lying through their teeth. I am taking phentermine currently and I clench my jaw to the point of headaches and the whole tip of my tongue is red and raw and I also have sores on my tongue from constantly biting it
