• Weight reduction.

Therapeutic Classification: central nervous system stimulants

Absorption: Well absorbed after oral administration.

Distribution: Widely distributed in body tissues, with high concentrations in the brain and CSF. Crosses the placenta and enters breast milk.

Metabolism/Excretion: Some metabolism by the liver. Urinary excretion is pH-dependent. Alkaline urine promotes reabsorption and prolongs action.

Half-life: 10–15 hr.
