DESCRIPTION 
Each Phentermine Resin - Valeant capsule contains phentermine as an
ion-exchange resin complex 
equivalent to 15, 30 or 40 mg phentermine depending on strength.
 The ion-exchange resin is quite 
stable, highly insoluble and without pharmacological effect until it
reacts with cations (hydrogen, 
potassium, sodium etc) present
in the gastrointestinal fluids.  Phentermine is then released
from the 
resin complex at a rate dependent on the total concentration of
these cations.  Since this concentration 
is fairly constant throughout the entire gastrointestinal tract,
continuous and controlled ionic release 
occurs over a 10 to 14 hour period. 

Each Phentermine Resin - Valeant capsule also contains,
as inactive ingredients, polystyrene 
sulfonate – sodium, lactose, liquid paraffin, magnesium stearate,
gelatin, titanium dioxide and iron 
oxide black (CI 77499).  In addition Phentermine Resin - Valeant
15 also contains brilliant blue FCF 
(CI 42090), iron oxide yellow (CI 77492); Phentermine Resin -
Valeant 30 also contains iron oxide 
red (CI 77491); Phentermine Resin - Valeant 40 also contains
erythrosine (CI 45430), sunset yellow 
FCF  
(CI 15985).  Phentermine Resin - Valeant capsules are
gluten-free_._
