Phentermine & Lapband

Does anyone know if it is safe for people with the LapBand to use Phentermine? I know certain meds are not allowed and wasn't sure if this is one of them. I'm considering adding it to my daily diet because I have been at a plateau and watching friends and family lose with the Phentermine pill. I have used it before I was banded so I am well aware of the side affects, I just need to know if it is on the not allowed list, will it irritate my stomach pouch?

:huh:

    Honestly, I have breakfast, a snack, lunch, a snack, dinner and then another snack. I stay between 1000-1200 a day and prob only around 50 protein. I have maintained 100 lb weight loss for over a year (I still think I may want to lose 10 more - but that would be the icing on the proverbial cake)
