Phenteramine ..again

Do you guys postpone or cancel cases if patient is on phentermine?? I recently had a total knee replacement tell me she started taking it 2 weeks prior to surgery, I have done short case where young people have been on phentermine and had hypotension that was prolonged so i have been hesistant to do a case where phentermine has been on board. I asked my seniors before hand before cancelling the case and the seniors were split on the issue.
