Dr. Hale -

I had a mother call today who has a 6 month old who is 20 lbs.  She has been
prescribed the following.  However, she only took the recommended dose for
one day and it made her ill.  She is now taking ½ the doses below.  She had
been on the medication one full week.  She said she no longer wants to take
it.  Ever since she began the meds. She has been pumping and dumping.  She
wants to go back to breast and wants to know how long the meds will be
present.  She will be pumping about every 4-5 hours.

Phentermine  30 milgrams once a day

Pondimin  20 milagrams three times a day

Thank you for your help.
