What are possible food and drug interactions associated with Adipex-P?
Adipex-P should never be combined with the weight-loss drug fenfluramine (Pondimin); very dangerous side effects could result. This drug may also react badly with alcohol. Avoid alcoholic beverages while you are taking it. If Adipex-P is taken with certain other drugs, the effects of either can be increased, decreased, or altered. It is especially important to check with your doctor before combining Adipex-P with the following: serotonin-boosting drugs (such as SSRI antidepressants), MAO inhibitors, diabetes medications, and high blood pressure medications.
