Frequently Asked Questions
What are the differences between Bupropion, Metformin, and Phentermine?
Bupropion helps regulate appetite and mood.
Metformin improves insulin sensitivity and controls cravings.
Phentermine is a stimulant that suppresses appetite and boosts energy.
Your provider will recommend the best fit for your goals and health profile.
Which medication is the most effective for weight loss?
Results vary by person, but Phentermine typically offers the most rapid short-term weight loss, while Bupropion and Metformin are better for long-term, sustainable fat reduction—especially in patients with mood or metabolic concerns.
Is Bupropion an antidepressant?
Yes, but in weight loss, it’s used for its energizing and appetite-reducing effects. It’s commonly prescribed off-label to support both mood and metabolism.
Can I take Metformin if I’m not diabetic?
Yes. Metformin is frequently used in non-diabetic patients for weight loss, especially those with insulin resistance, PCOS, or stubborn belly fat.
Is Phentermine safe?
When monitored by a medical provider, yes. It’s FDA-approved for short-term weight loss and is safe when used properly with regular check-ins.
What is the weight loss guarantee?
If you start in-office, follow your dosing plan, use the prescribed Personality Weight Loss App DAILY and check in once per week with our staff, we guarantee a measurable improvement in weight every month—or we’ll re-evaluate your protocol at no additional charge and give you back your monthly membership fee.
How long will I be on these medications?
Treatment duration varies. Some stay on Bupropion or Metformin long-term. Phentermine is usually limited to 12 weeks, unless prescribed cyclically.
Are these included in my membership?
Bupropion and Metformin: Included in your membership
Phentermine: $199/month add-on + membership
How quickly will I start losing weight?
Most patients begin noticing weight loss within 1–2 weeks on Phentermine and within 2–4 weeks on Bupropion or Metformin, especially with dietary support.
Will I feel jittery or wired on Phentermine?
Some patients report increased energy, slight insomnia, or dry mouth. Starting with a low dose and taking it earlier in the day can minimize side effects.
Can I take these if I have high blood pressure?
Bupropion and Metformin are generally safe. Phentermine may increase blood pressure, so we screen patients carefully and monitor vitals at follow-ups.
Does Bupropion reduce sugar cravings?
Yes, many patients report fewer emotional and sugar cravings while on Bupropion, especially when paired with high-protein, low-glycemic meals.
Can I drink alcohol while taking these medications?
Alcohol is discouraged, especially with Bupropion and Phentermine, due to increased risk of side effects like dizziness or blood pressure spikes.
Will I need labs before starting?
Yes. We may request labs to check your metabolic health, liver/kidney function, and glucose levels—especially before starting Metformin or Phentermine.
Are there side effects I should expect?
Bupropion: dry mouth, restlessness, headache
Metformin: mild nausea, bloating, diarrhea (usually improves in 1–2 weeks)
Phentermine: insomnia, increased heart rate, dry mouth
Do I have to follow a strict diet or exercise plan?
No strict rules—but light activity and mindful eating will help accelerate your results. Our team offers simple, realistic coaching to support your progress. For the weight loss guarantee, you need to follow the prescribed Personality Weight Loss App DAILY and check in once per week with our staff.
Are alternative medications FDA-approved?
Some generic medications are FDA-approved. Some are used off-label and are prepared by licensed U.S. pharmacies. While not FDA-approved individually, they follow strict safety and quality standards.
What if I get side effects?
We’ll adjust your dose or switch medications if needed. You’ll have access to our provider for ongoing support and dose optimization.
Can I combine any of these medications?
Yes. Bupropion + Naltrexone or Bupropion + Metformin is often used together for a synergistic effect. Our provider will assess the safest combo for you.
Will I regain weight after stopping the meds?
Weight maintenance depends on your lifestyle. We’ll guide you through long-term strategies like habit coaching, supplements, or transitioning to maintenance meds.
Can I use HSA or FSA to pay for the program?
Yes! In most cases, both the medications and membership fees are eligible. We can provide documentation upon request for your insurance or FSA/HSA provider.
What happens if I miss a dose?
Skip it and resume at your next scheduled time. Do not double up. Let us know if you’re missing multiple doses—we’ll help troubleshoot.
How do I refill my prescription?
We check in regularly. Most patients receive monthly follow-ups for refill review, symptom tracking, and dose adjustments—online or in person.
