Was Ionamin discontinued in the US?

My doctor gave me a prescription less than a week ago for the drug called Ionamin. My pharmacist told me today when I tried to fill it that it was discontinued last February. Does anyone know anything about this?

    Pharmacist is partially wrong.

    Ionamine is also called Phentermine as well as Adipex. Your pharmacist probably does not have the branded Ionamine, and your doctor probably wrote for the branded Ionamine, so your pharmacist can not change to generic.

    Ask your pharmacist to see if he can give you the generic Phentermine.
