Common adverse reactions include Increased blood pressure, Palpitations, Rash, Urticaria, Constipation, Nausea, Stomach cramps, Vomiting, Xerostomia, Central nervous system stimulation, Dizziness, Headache, Insomnia, Pain, Blurred vision, Mydriasis, Restlessness.

Adult Indications and Dosage

FDA-Labeled Indications and Dosage (Adult)

Indications

Diethylpropion hydrochloride 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 in patients with an initial body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m2 or higher and who have not responded to appropriate weight reducing regimen (diet and/or exercise) alone. Below is a chart of BMI based on various heights and weights. BMI is calculated by taking the patient’s weight, in kilograms (kg), divided by the patient’s height, in meters (m), squared. Metric conversions are as follows: pounds divided by 2.2 = kg; inches x 0.0254 = meters.

The 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. Diethylpropion hydrochloride is indicated for use as monotherapy only.
