What time do you take Meridia & on a full stomach?

My doctor just switched me from Phentermine to Meridia since Phen isn't approved for long-term use. I used to take Phen on a completely empty stomach and found that worked best. I usually took it mid-morning. Do you take Meridia on an empty or full stomach? What time of day do you take it? Has anyone started on the 10 MG and found the 15 MG worked better? I'm on day two of it today, and it doesn't feel like it's very strong.

Hi
I take mine in the morning after breakfast. I am using 15 mgs. and have noted it controls my hunger somewhat but not too much.

Did you start out on the 10 before taking the 15? Do you take it right after breakfast on a full stomach?

yes, i did start on the 10 mg. but switched to the 15 mg. hoping they would have more effect. i take mine after i eat something in the morning around ten a.m. it does control my cravings and hunger somewhat but not like other pills i have taken in the past. good luck,

I take 15mg and am on weeks 2.
I take it after breakfast, and that ensures I eat breakfast now .
The first week I didn't eat too much but this week it diesn't feel as if it is working as much. I am controlling things mentally but I ate a big steak last night.
I don't think it makes me feel fuller when I am eating like other tablets I have taken but it does take my mind off snacking.

hi im using reductil 10mg and it doesnt matter if you have food in your stomach or not b4 taking it, also the best time to take it is first thing in the morning especially if you have trouble sleeping whilst taking it also a personal tip i found if i took it a bit later i wasnt so hungry at come night. Ive only been takinging it for 12 days now and only lost 2.5kg im not sure if thats a good weight loss or not? hope advice is helpful.

15mg. I just started my 5th week, I have lost 10 lbs without feeling hungry.   Not a huge amount, but slow and steady. I'm happy with it.

I just started taking it this week and I am soooo hungry. I can't eat enough. I just got off phentermine and really notice a difference. Now I seem so hungry in fact my stomach growls first thing in the morning if I don't eat. I never feel full or satisfied.
