Caraco Pharmaceutical Laboratories is now producing Phentermine 37.5mg white/blue speckled tablets. This increase in competition among the manufacturers should result in a slight price decrease in the near future. Although Actavis is currently the only manufacturer producing a Phentermine 37.5mg capsule, there may be a price reduction on this product as well.

We would like to thank our customers that stopped by our booth to say “hello” during the ASBP symposium. It was great meeting everyone in person! We look forward to hearing from all of you soon.

Valeant Pharmaceuticals has announced a significant price increase on their Phendimetrazine (Bontril) green/yellow 35mg tablets and green/yellow 105mg capsules. At this time, the manufacturers of generic Phendimetrazine have not increased their prices. However, generic prices historically follow the brand regarding price fluctuations.

Generic Benzphetamine Hydrochloride (Didrex) is now available in 100ct and 500ct plastic bottles. Competition among multiple manufacturers should continue to drive down the price of this product.

Sanofi-Aventis has not received approval from the FDA for the weight-loss drug Accomplia (Rimonabant). They do not have a time frame as to when this product will be available in the U.S.
