False positive?

If you have been taking phentermine can that cause you to have high HCG levels and a false positive pregnancy test?

None reported for Phentermine. Repeat HCG levels and ultrasound can rule out or rule in false-positive tests. Recommend following up with OBGyn. Also, do not take phentermine for weight loss without using contraception to prevent pregnancy. Take care and stay safe!
