Phentermine in Albany, NY
Phentermine is an oral appetite suppressant FDA-approved since 1959 — one of the longest-used weight-loss medications in US practice. Prescribed short-term for adults with obesity (BMI ≥30, or ≥27 with comorbidity), it works by stimulating norepinephrine release to reduce hunger and increase satiety.
Typically used for:
Short-term appetite suppression during the first 12 weeks of a weight-loss protocol.
Benefits
What Phentermine can do for you.
Strong appetite suppression
Most men feel meaningful reductions in hunger within the first week of starting.
Short-term, focused use
Designed for 12-week windows — useful as a kick-start or alongside GLP-1 protocols.
Real weight loss
When combined with a structured plan, typical weight loss is 5–10% of starting weight in the prescribed window.
How it works
From consult to follow-up.
Initial consultation
A board-certified physician reviews your symptoms, history, and goals. At many participating clinics the first visit is complimentary.
Baseline labs
Bloodwork tailored to the protocol. Results come back in days, not weeks. We don't prescribe before we have your numbers.
Personalized protocol
Your physician calibrates your dose based on your labs and your goals — not a template. Adjustments happen as your data evolves.
Ongoing follow-up
Recheck visits at six and twelve weeks, then quarterly. Real follow-up, structured into the plan.
- Duration
- Daily oral tablet (typically 15–37.5 mg)
- Results timeline
- Peak appetite effect in first 4 weeks; weight loss over 12-week courses
Designed around your schedule
Consults are short
Initial visits are typically 45–60 minutes. Many participating clinics waive the fee for new patients.
Telehealth follow-ups
Where state regulations allow, follow-up visits are conducted via telehealth — no extra drive time.
Medication shipped
Prescriptions ship directly from a 503B-licensed pharmacy. No standing in line.
Quarterly check-ins
Structured follow-up at six and twelve weeks, then quarterly. Real medicine, not a one-and-done.

Took the time to actually answer my questions about side effects and long-term considerations. Didn't dodge anything. I respect that.

I'd been to my PCP for years about the same issues and getting nowhere. One visit to Upsize Albany and I had labs, a diagnosis, and a plan. Six months in and the difference is real.

Booking was easy. Office is nice. The provider was thorough during the initial intake. Only knock is that appointments can run a little behind, but the care quality more than makes up for it.

Honestly impressed by how methodical Dr. Natalia Ferrando, MD is. Started conservative, monitored, adjusted. That's how this should be done.

Front desk is responsive, scheduling is realistic, and the care plan is data-driven. Exactly what I was looking for after my last clinic kept dropping the ball on follow-ups.
