Phentermine, a contraction of "phenyl-tertiary-butylamine", is an appetite suppressant of the amphetamine and phenethylamine class.
Amphetamine is *already* in the Phenethylamine class. Is there some necessary reason to list phenethylamine as well? 108.82.92.60 ( talk) 05:15, 19 August 2011 (UTC)
I completely agree. Agenda here? MKidd9221 ( talk) 05:45, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
Adiphene is not anymore another name to say Phentermine but it is another product that doesn't contain Phentermine. — Preceding

I've restored the contraction clause since there's no reason to move it down. I'll restore it again if it's removed again. Same goes for the statement about its chemical classification and structure. Seppi333 ( Insert 2¢) 11:41, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

Sure we now have a source that says it is a "substituted amphetamine". These extra details "which has a methyl group on amphetamine's alpha carbon" are fine in the body. Doc James ( talk · contribs · email) 17:22, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
I explained the {{ confusing}} tag in the edit summary, but some might not know how to find it, so I'll paste what I wrote there here as the template directs Wikipedians to look at talk pages.
The lead states that weight loss stops after a few weeks. § "Medical use" states that it continues to occur "through the ninth month". Which is it?
