Duromine Side Effects?

Duromine – Does it help?

Duromine is an appetite suppresant and contains phentermine as the active ingredient. Its a prescription drug and is not available over the counter. Duromine tables are available in 3 strengths, 15mg, 30mg & 40 mg. Since its release, Duromine has been used successsfully for helping people lose weight. Duromine is recommended only for obese or over weight patients and is to be used in combination of healthy diet & exercise. Duromine is considered good only for patients with high cholestrol, high blood pressure or diabetes.

How does Duromine work?

Buy Duromine Duromine is as appetitie suppresant and reduces appetite by affecting the central nervous system with its active chemical ingredient. Phentermine, the active element in duromine affects the neurotransmitter in the brain causing stimulation in the area that controls the appetite. This stimulation to the brain results in the hunger craving to be turned off by the brain. Long term usage of phentermine is not recommended as long term usage tends to make phentermine ineffective. Phentermine can be addictive and hence is a controlled medicine.

The resin mixed with phentermine creates a slow release effect and extends the effects of the pills over the time. This usually results in less craving for food and hence weight loss. Duromine also acts by breaking down the stored fat.

Duromine – User opinions and feedback.

As for the drug Duromine, I’m currently taking it and have had no problems, but not to say that someone else might find they have huge problems with it. It works differently for each person, and depends on how that person is taking it, what their health is like and why they are taking it. If you already have a healthy diet and life style then it wont work for you. The whole idea of the drug is to switch off the part of the brain that craves food, and helps you then to re-educate yourself with just the health things. I look at forums and see how some people are taking this drug and OH MY no wonder it’s not working. Not eating isn’t the answer, of course once you stop you’ll pack the weight on, there is no life style change and for others if you have underlying health problems it wont work.

I used them back in 2001 when i had to loose a few kilos before being accepted in the police. I used them for about 8 weeks and TBH…glad when i stopped. I could never sleep (truckies take them to keep awake…and that bit hit me hard), i lost all appetite…couldnt eat much at all…i know thats the job of them..but i mean no food….couldnt stomach anything. I lost 5 kg in that time,
I personally would not reccomend them what so ever. Fast weight loss is not healthy…so keep that in mind.

i wouldn’t recommend them – DH has admitted that the basis of them is a type of legal speed – they’re not really healthy, don’t necessarily work the way they should, and can have some nasty side effects as kim outlined. my understanding is that they speed your heart rate so i don’t think it would be recommended to do anything that messes with your heart if you already have bp issues

    Hi Rina,
    Apologies for the delayed response. Thanks for visiting the site. Duramine does have the side effect. Probably you are having too much fibre hence are facing the difficulty. If the trouble continues, talk to your doctor & change the medication. probably look at any other alternative weight loss pill.

    Hi i was just wondering, i’ve been reading up on all these stories with duromine. I’ve just been given the 30mg ones and this is my 2nd day on them and i’ve had no side affects E.G sleeplessness, dry mouth,etc and i still get hungry. Do you think that i’ve got a dud box of them? Or will it take a while to work?

    reply
  • admin wrote on 18 July, 2009, 10:25

    Hi Liz…. Not everyone will have side effects… but you should be able to see results in 3-4 weeks.. Always buy prescription drugs from stores & not sites like eBay. Duromine is an appetite suppressant so if you still feel hungry after having Duromine then probably you have ended up with fakes

    reply
  • Liz wrote on 18 July, 2009, 19:49

    Yeah i got the script from my doc and had it filled at the chemist that’s why i thought that i might have a dud box cause they wouldn’t be fake. I did get the generic brand though would that make a difference? Can i take them back and ask for the proper brand? Thanks for your help.

    reply
  • admin wrote on 19 July, 2009, 21:43

    Hey Liz, other users have reported results or side effects in a day or two. But I would recommend you wait for 1 weeks at least.

    Duromine is the brand name & contains active ingredient phentermine. So if you say you have got generic brand, then its not duromine. It must be a pill containing phentermine. If your doctor has suggested Duromine specifically, then you should take the pills back to the chemist & insist on Duromine. Other brands containing phentermine include Adipex P which is a fast release pill, Ionamin Phenterex, Phentromin etc.
    Always insist on brand names for any weight loss pills.

    hi there, i had been taking duromine for 8 days, i then started loosing my vision, my sight was blured and i was on my own zone, i was blanking out and i couldn’t sleep. i stopped taking duromine for my own saftey. i had lost 5 kilos in less than a week, that is not normal, healthy and is exreamly dangerouse
    i would suggest that if you are extreamly obease then try it but rather stay away.
    i am only 10 kilos over weight and that is not worth risking my life.
    duromine is a potent drug, when i was on it all i could think of was my weight, i had become obsessed. take some good advise!! dont do it.

    Ashleigh: It was good decision to stop duromine. It seems you may have been allergic to phentermine. Have you looked at other options like Zotrim or proactol which are natural supplements & do not have any side effects.

    reply
  • admin wrote on 22 July, 2009, 7:31

    Anelisa: The side effects are common with Duromine. The side effects should reduce over time. If they don’t you should immediately consult your doctor.

    Hi Arina.. this is not the side effect of duromine. Weakness, restlessness are some common side effects. You may want to consult your doctor for the delay in your periods. This may just be due to stress.

    Hi i’ve now experienced the side affects of the duromine. The dry mouth and restlessness but no extra energy. I’m on my 2ND week now i can notice a difference in my weight but it still doesn’t really suppress my appetite. I’ve started making conscious decisions on what i’m eating (more meals and smaller) and exercising an hour a day, but want i want to know is if it’s not suppressing my appetite should i keep taking it? Does it work in other ways as well? My periods are also late, but that only seems to be a bonus at the moment :-)

    Thankyou for you help

  • admin wrote on 27 July, 2009, 21:17

    Hi Liz, it may take some time before you start noticing difference. So if you are not facing any major side effects, you should continue as advised by your doctor. Anyway since you have already started making conscious decisions on your food intake, you will definitely lose weight. :)

  • Charlotte wrote on 28 July, 2009, 3:47

    Within the first few days of taking Duromine I noticed a huge difference in my appetite. I’m not craving anything nor am I even getting hungry – however I still eat the normal breakfast, lunch and dinner as not eating makes you gain weight not lose it. If you are taking these pills and have no appetite you should still eat because the point is that these pills are to help you change your eating habbits while you’re on them so you can continue that healthy eating once you’re off them.

    If you don’t eat while you’re taking them you will end up dependant on them which is bad for you health and possibly even overdosing which can lead to death. This is why doctors only subscribe them for up to 2 months (and that’s only if they work the 1st month). In the 1st week I experienced headaches and dizziness which my Dr. said was a common side effect, but then towards the end of the week they stopped. I have been fine since and have lost weight so they are working well for me. However everyones side effects will vary depending on the persons health, weight, life-style etc.

    They will not work if you overeat, eat fatty foods excessively, don’t exercise etc. It’s a balance of 1 of the pills at breakfast, eating at normal times (breakfast, lunch and dinner) with a balanced portion of the foods you’re eating but definately eating fruits and vegies, drinking lots of water and cardio exercising at least 3 times a week for 20-30 minutes. Hope this helps anyone.

    reply
  • Liz wrote on 31 July, 2009, 23:27

    Thanks Charlotte that’s really helpful. So now that i’m eating healthy and exercising everyday should i stop taking the duromine? Does it still help you lose the weight or is it just to get you into a healthy pattern?

    hi..i have been on duromine for 6 weeks now..i started dieting before going on them but my doctor thought they would assist me in getting my new eating habits set…i am using it as an aid not as “the answer” to my weight problem..i had initial sleeplessness and still find i have a dry mouth/throat but thats a good thing as it prompts me to drink more water…no excess energy or other symptoms that others have reported.

    I have also added exercise to my life…so after 10 weeks of changes i have lost 19 kilos…and not all of it on the duromine..im worried that when i do stop taking the duromine that the weight will come back but am really determined to make sure that i retrain myself well enough for me to combat not having an aid anymore. overall i am glad i overcame my worries from all the scarey things you can read about it and gave it a try for myself!!

  • K's wrote on 3 August, 2009, 9:03

    Hi All, I have been researching duromine and reading experiences fora couple weeks now, i think i have visited every site under the sun, Inititally i was worried of theside effects and a little bit scared. I have now been on duromine 30 for 5 days and my dosage is set at every second day. I havent really experienced any sleeplesness or speedy effects, which i guess is good, seeings they’re not actually got any speed in them.

    The only thing i have noticed so far is that i still do feel hungry at normal times. I am still eating my normal healthy meals and also small health snack throughout the day. I could quite eaily not eat and be ok with it, you know not starving but i think your brain still tells you to eat, just in smaller proportions. I jog every second day as well and have been for a long time prior to taking duromine, but so far in the 5 days of being on it, which means only 3 pills, i have lost 4 kilo!

    I guess if you have the weight there to lose, it will come off easier. Duromine sems to help burn off the fat deposits that are usually hard to shift! Which is great! I also want to congratulate the people who have been able to change their lives and set healthier patterns for themselves while on duromine, its so great to hear how happy people are when they can shed some unwanted weight and gain it all back in confidence! Well Done.

    And on the other note, Duromine clearly effects individuals in different ways, so if you really feel that you need a kick start, then a few side effects are probably not going to get in your way, but if you feel like your health is being risked, then its easy… just dont take it! But please to all the people who write horror stories on here saying that theyfeel like they are going to die frpom taking duromine, it does scare some people andonce again it effects everyone differently. Certainly share your experiences, but try and have the mindset that this drug does really help a lot of people change their lives for the better and for their whole lifetime! :)

  • K's wrote on 3 August, 2009, 9:08

    Oh and Liz… I read back over your question an saw you asked if it worked in other ways if your eating, i believe it actually helps to increase your metabolism helping you to burn that excess fat that has been deposited. Keep i mind however, that if you do not continue on healthy eating pattern, when yu no longer take duromine you metabolism will slow back down, hence why people keep sying that you gain all the weight back after you quit them.

    If you continue to exercise and eat healthy even afer the duromine is gone, you will continue to lose weight, it may not be a such a quick loss but you will definitely remain in healthy weight range by eating well & exercising moderately.

  • Liz wrote on 4 August, 2009, 21:52

    Hi, I have been on Duromine 40′s for 2 days and have felt quite a bit different than usual. I feel like my heart is going much faster than normal and when i get anxious about the feeling it goes even faster. I work in an office environment so i get very restless and genral feeling of YUK. I think that what i am feeling is being brought on by worrying about the differences in my body when taking the pill. Cause when i am busy and moving around i feel great. I think i have scared myself into thinking the worst with all of the bad comments i have been reading. The doc precribed 40mg strait away instead of moving up gradually – Could this be why i am feeling not quite right??? Do you think the felling will go away on its own? Please send me a responce asap

    I started on 30mg and was still starving all the time I didn’t exercise and actually put more weight on after the first month. I am now on 40mg and am still starving and have no side effects whatsoever. I have been on 40mg for about 10 days now. Why am I still so hungry this was a prescription from my doctor. I have now started walking 60 mins a day, but I thought duromine was an appetite suppressant – it hasn’t suppressed mine :(

  • Laura wrote on 12 August, 2009, 2:03

    Hi Everyone :)
    I have been on Duromine 30 for 6 weeks now and I am really happy with the results. I went to see the doctor because I felt like my eating and drinking (alcohol) was out of control. I weighed 120kg and am 175cm tall. My BMI was 39 :(
    He suggested Duromine which I heard about but never knew doctors would prescribe as it has such a bad rap.
    Yes I freaked out when I saw all the side effects and bad reviews, but as I had no other health issues other than being disgustingly fat, I decided to give them a go.
    The first week I lost 5kg, the second 2.5kg, the third 1kg, fourth 3.5kg, fifth 1.5 and 6th week another 1.5kg. I have no feeling of hunger, however I eat 3 healthy meals a day. I swim at a medium pace for 2 hours a day 5 times a week. I drink at least 2.5 litres of water EVERY day. Plus I am not drinking any caffiene. I take a multivitamin, milk thistle for liver health and fish oil (I dont know what that does, but I take it anyway!). I have not had one sip of alcohol (used to drink up to 2 bottles of wine a night!). The only side effects I have are a bit more up and go (cleaner house and more incidental exercise), a dry mouth later in the afternoon plus disgusting breath!
    After the first 30 days my doctor checked my blood pressure and it was still at my norm of 110/75. So he was happy to continue with the 2nd month. Yay!
    The only question I have is that at 105kg my BMI is still 34.1 which is still hugely obese. If I have no side effects why does the doctor want me to start taking 1 every 2/3 days next month? I have a dieticians appointment next month (September 25th) and I would really like to have them everyday until then. I think the more knowledge I have on portion sizing etc will help me continue with this weight loss journey. I am not saying I HAVE to have them otherwise I can’t lose weight, I just think why not continue until I am of normal weight?
    Anyway the last thing I wanted to write was that the bad reviews from people seems way out of proportion. The point is they give duromine to fat people (and we are certainly not healthy people), so obviously if you are unhealthy to start with, surely a pill can’ be the blame for all the things that go wrong can it? Also if you look on MIMS (a medical book for health professionals), Duromine (or phentermine) has not scientifically been proven to cause any deaths or heart abnormalities. It was only if it was mixed with another drug (which I can’t remember off the top of my head!).
    So good luck everyone and I hope we can all be the healthy people we want to be!
    Laura.

    Hi everyone,

    I took Duromine for 2 months (40mg dose) at the beginning of this year and have just started to take them again (will explain that later). I could not have had a more positive experience on them. I lost 4 kgs in the first 3 days. I was drinking lots of water (i have a hard time drinking water usually) eating healthily and only at meal times and exercising for up to an hour a day 5-6 times a week. I have NEVER felt more healthy then when i was taking Duromine. The only side effects i had was on the first day it was like i was high, but this was only the first day, and the whole time i was on them i had dry mouth. They controlled my appetite, but not to the point where i didnt want to eat, i just craved healthy food like fruit and vegies (im a vegetarian). Plus i had heaps of energy so exercising was easier and my fitness improved greatly as a result. I found the tablets lost effectiveness after 5-6 weeks though, so i wouldnt recommend being on them for more than 2 months at a time. I completely changed my life on these and, as i said earlier, have never felt so healthy. Over the 2 months i lost 15 kgs. Unfortunately after i went off them i had certain things happen in my life (such as the death of a love one) that threw me for a spin and sent me racing back to comfort foods and spending time lazing around. Thankfully i didnt put the weight back on, but i lost my motivation and desire. So thats why i have just gone back on them again. im on my 3rd tablet today. I can already tell that they arent as effective as the first time around, however even just the fact im taking them is making me determined to eat better and exercise. Whilst these tablets arent for everyone (and should only be taken under the supervision of a respectable dr, not one that just hands out prescriptions willy nilly) i had nothing but a positive experience on them and DID NOT put weight back on when i stopped taking them, even though i went back to bad eating habits combined with no exercise.

    Hi, I just have to say that i love Duromine!! I have no side affects at all i drink lots of water so no headaches at all and i sleep like a baby..I have heaps of energy and am never hungery..I was really scared at first about taking them cause of all the other posts on here but everyone is different and reacts differantly to the pills..so i say try it once and see if it works for you..
    I’m on my 5th pill today, when i started i was 86kgs im now 82kg and no i dont stave myslef i have to run around after two kids all day..so i just eat very small protions of food a coffee for brekky, small lunch, maybe some salted nuts in between and then a small dinner.. I excercise about 40 mins a day walking and running on the treadmill, cleaning, gardening im always moving..
    But i really wanna lose more weight before a wedding in two weeks so im thinking of just eating a little bit less and then after that eat normal again while on the pills for another 30 days so i dont put all the weight back on after i stop will that work? Can i slow my metabolism down by not eating then speed it up again on the next set of duromine i only wanna be on them for 2 months thats it..

Being very overweight runs in my family and one of aunts actually had gastric bypass surgery ( but she was obese). I started to take Duromine 30mg 2 weeks ago and only once i had a headache, but that could’ve also been because it was a super hot day. I am a rep and literally live in my car.
    But since then i haven’t gotten a headache again. The only side effect i get is a dry mouth, and like other people have mentioned that is a good thing, makes me want to drink only water. I AM a Coca-Cola freak. My boyfriend owns a Supplament store and he has such self dissapline to eat correctly and train every day.

Not so much bad foods i.e fast foods, but rich and yummy foods.
    My boyfriend suggested Duromine to help me reach my goal before our summer holidays here in South Africa. Since i’ve taken them i’ve lost 1KG per week, which any nutritionist will tell you is the right ammount to loose if you want to keep it off. I get hungry at breakfast, lunch and dinner time. I have changed my eating to a protein shake with oats in the morning (and that is when i take duramine), a banana or fruit at snack time, tuna, low fat cottage cheese with provitas (which are wholewheat crackers) at lunch and dinner time i have just cut out carbs and added a few veggies as some do contain carbs. And if i’m not hungry and it is time to eat, i make sure i eat something. My water intake still needs a bit of work but i drink nothing less than a 1.5 l a day. I do cardio classes at least 3 times a week. And yes like any good diet person i reward myself on Sunday with a cheat day. It also shocks ur system as your body starts to get used to good foods only and eventually it won’t burn as quickly. Gives ur Metabolism a little jolt. No dizziness, no lack of sleep and none of the other scary stuff other people are saying. But EVERYONE is different!!!!!!
    My boyfriend did research before i started to take it, but recently started getting a bit worried as one website said there were fatal side effects.
    My questions are…. Is it ok to take it for 3 months???? Are there really fatal effects if i’m on the 30mg and only take 1 capsule a day with food? And how do i phase it out??
    I’m not an addictive type person so i’m not worried about having withdrawel symptoms. I just want to keep my good lifestyle forever. Or is there some sort of Hypnosis remedy to make me a super self dissaplinedperson?? (LOL) no seriously if someone has an answer for that last one it would be great.

    I wish all of you the best of luck and hope that in time you all look your absolute sexiest.

    I have used Duromine for only one day and I have experienced a side effect not mentioned by anyone so far. I am feeling quite high. A floating feeling as if i’ve taken tranquilisers. My appetite is also non existant today which for me; shows its really working as I am normally hungry ALL the time! Do I need to take a tablet every single day or is it advisable to skip a few days in between as this drugged feeling I’m having cant be too healthy.

  • admin wrote on 21 September, 2009, 21:23

    Jess, vomiting may be due to duromine or a side effect from duromine. If your doctor has suggested duromine, I would recommend you inform the doctor & stop duromine immediately. Why don’t you look at some herbal supplement like proactol or zotrim which do not have such side effects.

    Hi ev1, my husband started taking duromine on 16th Sept, apart from the 1st day when he felt like he was high, and a dry mouth all the time, there has been no other effects at all until 2 days ago…. his sex drive has plummeted, he can not get it up at all, much to mine n his disappointment lol.
    Has anyone else noticed a big difference in their sex drive?
    My daughter is taking duromine (about 3wks now) as well but her sex drive has gone the opposite way…. she can’t get enough lol
    Hubby has lost 5kgs since he started on duromine and he can’t sit still, I have never seen him with this much energy!!! he now walks every morning for an hour and every 2nd night he goes for a 30min walk as well, he has stopped snacking on foods in-between meals and is eating healthier foods now. He always complained before about being hungry all the time… that has now gone!
    my husbands starting weight was 119.8kgs and at 5f 12in that is obese, at present he is 114.6kgs. This tablet does work, I have witnessed the results for myself. My daughter in 3 wks has lost 12kgs and she feels great! gl to ev1 trying to lose weight, I know how hard it is to lose those kilos, but if this helps you achieve weight loss and changes your eating habits, then the side effects (which may only last a couple of days, except the dry mouth) are worth it!!!

  • joanngel wrote on 25 September, 2009, 9:24

    This is a comment I found on the net, and after reading it, it all makes perfect sense… plz read:

    I understand that everyone’s experiences are different so I thought I should share my positive one.
    I began taking Duromine 30mg 8 weeks ago due to some abnormal liver function results (caused by being overweight). It was my last desperate attempt to shed those pesky post-pregnancy pounds and I am getting married in 8 weeks (want to look as fantastic as possible).

    I am a 22-year old stay at home mother to a 10 month old baby girl. I weighed 94kg and am 169cm tall and after 30 days of tablets, I weighed 79kg. I experienced ZERO negative side effects. I had extra energy, was sleeping like a baby at night time and as the kilos came off, I felt fantastic.

    After finishing my course, I gave myself a 4 week break and maintained my weight by simply exercising at least 3 times a week (i would walk or do some sit-ups, nothing too hardcore). I still indulged here and there as human beings do, but by following the national standard of the food pyramid intake and a bit of exercise, I kept the weight off.

    I went back to the doctor last week for a check-up. My blood pressure was fine and my heart sounded great. I had some follow-up blood tests and my liver function is no longer abnormal, it is completely healthy. Today I started next lot of Duromine 30mg as I would like to get to 68kg and then I will fend for myself after this course.

    I followed the prescription carefully and have the following useful tips:

    *Set your alarm for 6am and have Tony Ferguson/Celebrity Slim or whatever weight loss shake system you have in your country. These are milky (to line your stomach) and bulky (make you feel very full). Take the tablet on top of the shake. If you wish to go back to bed until the pill kicks in, by all means go for it. I have a young child and partner who does not begin work until 8am so I would get dressed and go for a brisk walk around my block for 45 minutes. While my heart rate was still pumping when I got home, I would lay down and do some sit-ups (my problem area is my stomach) and go for a shower. If my daughter woke in the time I was gone, my partner would tend to her as he is excited for me to lose weight and understands I need his help every now and then to do so. I’d then have a shower and be ready for the day. Taking the pill early in the morning helps you get to sleep that night, having breakfast kicks starts your metabolism for the day (rather than taking the pill on an empty stomach and not eating all day, which makes you go into starvation mode and the weight you lose comes back), getting a days worth of exercise out of the way in the morning and having a shower and being dressed by 7:30 in the morning will make you feel refreshed and ready for the day.
    *Drink lots of water. Keep a 750mL bottle of water with you at all times. I find the 1.5L gets bulky and goes to room temp too fast making it less enjoyable. I credit this as to why I never experienced a dry mouth.
    *You will find that when you begin to get hungry, you aren’t as “starving” as usual. This gives you time and clarity to prepare something healthy for yourself rather than rushing to the nearest fast food outlet (which was my weakness, i wouldnt have breakfast and would get that starving that I would just go to the drive-thru for a quick fix rather than make a salad or a healthy sandwich).
    *I got rid of any food in my pantry (sweets etc) that I didn’t “need” and would hinder my weight loss. Removing temptation was a huge benefit, it forces you (once again) to have something healthy.
    *I set goals for myself, not weight goals, reward goals. If I exercised each day and ate well, I would reward myself once a week or fortnight to a night out to a restaurant with my partner or friends. Most menus have healthy options too.

    I strongly believe that most negative side effects are the result of not following the correct procedures with the Duromine. Those people who don’t eat whilst on it need to realise that they are in fact starving their bodies. You’re body cannot function without steady food and water intake so of course if you dont eat all day, you’re body is going to tell you it does not like it as you are basically killing it.

    In saying so, I do understand that Duromine is not for everyone. So to anyone who followed the procedures perfectly and it still had negative side effects, please do not take offence. Everyone is different, I just hope my thoughts help the silly ones who dont follow the right steps and whinge that it didn’t work or made them feel like hell.

    Bottom line, you don’t just take the pill and hope for a miracle. You still have a bit of work to do. If fat were that easy to lose, no one in the world would be overweight.

    I will let you know when I get to 68kg!

    does the 15mg work better than the 30mg – or could it be that the 30mg was to strong for me? I do not understand how it can work for one but not for the other.What is the difference between the 15mg and the 30mg, should the 30mg not work better than the 15mg? Please advise.

One of the side effects is sleplessness, i naturally have this anyway but since starting duromine I’m actually able to fall asleep easier. I find myself getting annoyed at work colleagues and wanting to snap at them and i’m getting slightly impatient at times like “HURRY UP!!” or wanting it to be tomorrow already!!. any suggestions?

I still exercise everyday, it seems to be a bit more effort without it but i don’t care cause i feel and look great and i’m never going back. I was worried about coming off them but for the last 2 weeks i broke them down and only had 1/2 strength everyday and it was fine. Good luck everyone. Duromine is a god send.

    Hi everyone I’ve been on duromine since the 15th of October. The first week the side effects were huge I was restless and felt completely out of sorts but my house was spotless, I was told by a friend this would pass after a week and it did. I lost 10kg in the first 2 weeks but nothing the next 2 weeks my phsycologist who is also a hypnotist reccomended I wiegh myself every morning and night for a fortnight and write down all I was eating. This was eye opening cause although I was eating less and what I was eating was fairly healthy each dinner contained either bread, pasta or rice and every other day a piece of chocolate cake or 2 or ice cream. It’s been 1 week since I cut wheat products, white rice and sugar out of my diet and have now lost a further 4kg. I wont buy any foods whose ingredients list sugar within the first 4. I also attended 2 overeaters annonymous meeting in the past week which I have found helpful. I am so fearful of getting back to 100kg I’m not taking any chances. I have a hypnosis session tomorrow and joing a gym is next on the agenda. I hope it comes off and stays off for everyone Shell

    Hi guys,

    Just thought i share with you my experience regarding Duromine

    Duromine is great if you are looking at something short-term / to kickstart your weightloss program but you guys have to absolutely make sure you guys do not abuse it longer than the term prescribed.

    I was overweight as a kid and asked my doctor for it when i was 15 years old. Love the effect it had on me – i was alert, could work out for long hours and not feel hungry at all. I lost 25kg and became almost anorexic for a period of time.

    Anyway, I managed to keep my weight constant but started abusing it for the “alert” factor. Started to get dependent on it and even take 2 pills a day sometimes (tts 30mg each = 60mg!) and yet sleeps like a baby at night.

    on-off, was on the pill for 3 years in total (i stopped taking it when i was 16 – 20 years old) and became totally dependent on it (i.e. if i dont eat it i feel very tired and sluggish. I would just want to sleep and eat when I am awake.

    Duromine is absolutely a short term measure. Looks like a healthy and balanced diet / lifestyle is still the way to go

    I eat 3 meals a day and I dont over eat (for a change). One thing I love about it is that I dont think about Junk foods anymore and when I do have junk foods, I dont find myself over eating. In the past I had tried soo many different things but this has actually given me that fresh start that I was finding hard to get. I am able to do sooo much with my family. If anything it has helped us as a family to become more pro active. We do 2hr walks and we do more things now then befor.When I end my last sheet I hope that I dont fall into the same story as everyone else of putting the weight back on and I hope that my family will keep having the life style that we have now. I am looking at doing Boxing twice a week from now on because I know I need to keep it up. I have no regrets in taking duomine and I am enjoying my body more and more every day. I have lost 15kg and I have enjoyed every “OMG YOUR LOOKING” feed backs that I have had from friends, family and the people around me .

    Hey Angie, Duromine does have side effects. Skin rashes is one of the side effects of Duromine. if this does not decrease in 2-3 week period or increases over this period, I would recommend talking to your doctor & moving to some other pill.

    Rose: This is indeed a side effect from Duromine. Usually the side effects lasts for about a month or so till your body gets comfortable with the pills. But sometimes the side effects continue for a longer duration. Normally If the side effects lasts for more than 2-3 weeks, you should consult your doctor & look for other alternative.

I need to lose about 5-6kgs realistically. My dr has given me a script for Duramine 15mg. Before I rush off to get this, my only health concern is I had an anneurysm on the brain about 5 years ago. It was clipped at the time and I am not on any medication whatsoever. Would Duramine be a reasonable weight loss choice for me? Al

    Hallo everyone

    I would like to share my personal wieght loss story with you.

    I am 21 years old and weighed 122kg’s but im 1.8m tall, and thought my height could make up for the weight that I carried….until I broke my leg and ankle and torn my ligaments all in one silly fall. I could not walk for more than 2 months and after I started to recover I realized a major swelling in ,my legs and consulted my doctor. He explained that my weight was too much for my legs to handle and if I dont loose the weight I could be in serious trouble health wise!

    There and then I turned my life around I thought I would stop eating but soon realize that was not a sane person talking, so I changed my lifestyle to healthy eating, walking more and drinking lots of water! In 2 weeks I have lost 5kg’s. A friend advised I should go on duromine 30′s and asked my GP if that was a good choice. He did not advise it at first but after much debate and weighing out our options he prescribed the 30′s. My BMI is 40 at the moment which is hugely obese and very unhealthy. I have been on duromine for 3 days now and have only experienced dry mouth which is good, coz now I drink more water.

    I want to wish all my fellow weight struggling friends: GOOD LUCK, it’s not a easy root to take and it’s gonna take time! weigh every 2 months,eat healty, drink water, excercise and have faith!

    It’s a lifestyle change!

    Hi, I have been taking 30 mg of duromine for six weeks now and have lost 7kg. I have suffered few physical side effects. I have however been arguing alot with my partner and he believes i have become moody and negative, mostly at night ? I have stopped loosing weight now too, my appetite is returning and I am feeling tired much more, do I need to stop taking Duromine or increase the dose ? Initially i was really happy with it, so what has gone wrong ? My desired weight is 65 kg, I have another 10kg to go but i am affraid it is making me difficult to be around and my moods are putting pressure on my relationship. I feel like am stuck between a rock and a hard place because being fat also makes me moody and negative .

    Hi, I started taking Duromine 15mg on 20 March. I took it in the morning and I noticed around lunch time I wasn’t hungry at all. The first couple of days I felt hyperactive and couldn’t sit still. Which is probably a good thing as it forced me to do 2 hours of extra exercise in the first couple of days. Apart from the first couple of days of hyperactivity, the only side effect I am experiencing is dry mouth and a decrease in my libido. I still feel hungry but I tend to crave more healthy food such as fruits and veges. I used to crave sugar and carbs but since being on Duromine, don’t feel the need to eat cookies at the office or ice cream at night. I’m also exercising in moderation now. Before I used to be a gym junkie but because of my lack of discipline in what I ate and drank (alcohol), I found myself 15kgs overweight. I am using Duromine to kick start my weight loss, I know that this is not a long term solution. I do not think I have lost any weight yet… I will definitely keep you posted! PS. I’m so glad to have finally found a site that discusses both the good and bad effects of Duromine. During my research before taking it, I found alot of sites posting horror stories that can really put a person off! I think that you have realistic expectations and train yourself into having a more healthy lifestyle (ie good eating and exercise habits) then Duromine is great. But I think most of the negative posts are from people who expect it to be a wonder drug that will help you shed kilos without any effort.

    I used Duromine 30mg for the first time about a month ago, tho only for 2 weeks. I always fluctuated between 100-105kgs but now weigh 95kgs. My BMI is still 29 and I still need to lose a few more kgs if to get ripped. I was running 40-45mins 2-3 days a week and doing weights training 2-3 days a week. I was in training for sport. My diet was quiet healthy and my portion sizes were alot smaller than what I used to eat, which has always been my problem. Because of my work, sport and up-brining, I have always drunk plenty of water (at least 4-6 litres a day). I did not get any side effects what so ever. I have been off them for about 3 weeks now and have noticed over the past few days to a week that my appetite is growing again, however I have managed to keep off the kg’s even though I have not been training 2 weeks because of work and moving house. For me Duromine was awesome. I have always been in training and working hard but have not lost weight like this ever. I recommend that if you are going to try it you need to use it in conjunction with a good diet and plenty of exercise. If you work your ass off at work or the gym then when it comes to bed time, you’ll be tired and be able to sleep like a baby. Drink plenty of water as it helps with flushing out your system and is the best to keep you hydrated. There is no miracle pill out there, only substitutes.

    Hey All!
    I am looking at going on duromine, I am 24 yrs old, have had 4 children and I am at the heaviest I have ever been (80kgs). Its depressing me, and yet I have no time to exercise as I have 3 tots under 3, so when I have the chance all I want to do is relax or clean. I am uncertain if duromine is my “aid”, and if it is…I want to do it correctly so I dont put the weight back on when I stop.

    I believe duromine brings out your personality traits. -If you are an angry person -then you’ll be yelling & screaming a hell of a lot more on Duromine. If you are naturally happy -then you’ll be happy most of the time on duromine -etc etc. It highlights your personality traits.

    I have been on duromine 40mg for 5 days now and have lost 3kgs already. I have had a slight dry mouth -but have just been drinking Heaps of water so it hasnt been a problem (Before starting on duromine i was drinking 3-4 litres of Soft Drink (Pepsi Max) a day~ Now i find i only want to drink water. I havent had any immense amounts of energy, but also am not lethargic or anything either. I normally find it very difficult to sleep at night, but so far have only had one night where i had slight difficulty falling to sleep~ Which is great as before taking duromine this occurred just about everynight. The first night i had a brief moment where i felt dizzy, like i was about to feint, but i think it was because i hadnt eaten -I now make sure i eat each day even tho im not hungry. Duromine takes any cravings away -You can sit in the same room as someone eating Takeaway, like McDonalds, and not feel like you really really want to eat that food too. – You still feel a little hungry at times, but it really stops any cravings. I am 10kgs overweight having had a baby 5mths ago, and am hoping to lose that within the next month or 2. Good Luck to everyone trying to lose weight, but i do suggest trying to eat healthily whilst on duromine so when you stop taking it you’ll keep the weight off

I just recently found out though that Duromine comes in 30mg and 40mg presentations. What should be the criteria for prescribing those last two? Does it go according to level of obesity? Does anyone know?

    Stacie: Yes you can lose weight with Duromine. Duromine does carry its own side effects. You may have sleeplessness. The side effects do tend to minimize over a period of time as the body adjusts to Duromine. In rare occasions, the side effects may be for a longer time for some people.

    Karen: Yes this is one of the side effects of duromine.

    Vanessa: You will have to take the dosage as prescribed by your doctor. Do not buy OTC & take duromine on your own.

    Maija: You are correct, Duromine strengths are for various levels of Obesity.

    reply
  • admin wrote on 14 April, 2010, 0:13

    mmakwena : Yes Sleeplessness is normal side effect. But not craving for sugar. Duromine is a appetite suppressant so you should not be feeling hungry or have a carving to eat.

    melissa: You should consult your doctor before starting with Duromine. it is not recommended that you start Duromine based on reviews. If you want to start OTC treatment, consider something which does not have any side effect.

I am at the stage where i can hardly pull myself out of bed and dont want to leave the house because i feel so lousy. I have no energy what so ever, and can not stop eating – i feel as if i have a food addiction. My confidence has hit rock bottom and i just feel like failure.

    I am 162cm tall and weigh 56kg which i understand isn’t overweight. But i just want a boost, like a kick start to help get rid of this stubborn fat that is just not moving – it would be amazing to have energy to just pull myself out of bed easily and not have food cravings constantly for all the wrong foods. I would love to get duromine, i have tried it before and it was amazing. But i dont know how to get it again.

    I was on Duromine a couple years ago and lost 12 kgs and felt great. Only side effects were faster heart beat which didn’t worry me, stronger smelling urine, dry mouth (making me drink more water) and a cleaner house. Before going on Duromine I was always so tired by the end of the day I hated cooking dinner etc and just wanted to watch tv. When using Duromine it is so much easier to eat healthy food as you are not inclined to put every yummy thing that is quick in your gob. Because you are not actually hungry you make the effort to bypass the fast food places and walk a bit further to the health food shop.

    And to those who say it diminishes your sex drive…well maybe for some but for me it was the total reverse. Went from a couple of times a week to a couple hours every night…be warned.

    Neel / starbaby: You should get Duromine only from your doctor.. Do not buy duromine unless precribed. 
    Lebo: Thanks for sharing your experience.
    Alisa: Though duromine has side effects, cramps is not a common side effects. so if the cramps continue, you should stop Duromine & see if the cramps are reduced. If yes, you need to talk to your doctor & inform about the cramps. Probably the doctor will reduce the strength of duromine.
    Roly: You can try other solutions like Proactol or Zotrim which can be bought online & do not have any side effects.
    Natasha: Thanks for sharing your experience. Guess everyone would be very happy to have side effects like you.
    RM: Duromine can result in extreme side effects when mixed with certain medications. Also inform your doctor about existing medications when starting Duromine.

    hello sami,

    you should consult a doctor before you were on duromine. Im suggesting you to take only the 30mg, none has taken the 40mg before.

    I’ve taken a lot of diet pills, from disgusting anoretix, diet tea this and that even doing lipostabyl without any doctor consent. but at least when you’re taking a medication under a doctor supervision, you feel safe. and not worrying you wont wake up in the morning, and you know whats the best for your body.

    on my research on a healthy diet and living, go to gym, or at least burn 400calories for workout, you need to throw away another 2000calories per week (this is beside sleeping, doing your work etc) to lose 0.5kg per week. and thats why people says, medically you only good losing 2-3kg per months.

    I dont know if you do it together with duromine, so far I didnt lose much, even I do exercising, but at least by doing exercise I can detox what ever bad thing inside my body, and my heart is still healthy.

    I have taken duromine before but i wasnt eating on it because it made me lose the weight really quick that way, it made me feel really sick i couldnt handle any smells to the point i was dry reaching i would get angry and i couldnt sleep. when i stopped it i put all the weight back on again.(probably cos i wasnt eating) I tryed so many diets in the mean time and still nothing has worked. I decided to start taking duromine again but incombine with a healthy diet and at least half an hour of exersize a day as you dont have cravings and suppreses your appitie. I have lost 2 kg in 2days so far and hopefully will keep going this way. I hope this is a kickstart to my weight loss and healthy eating that i will be able to maintain it is harder to lose weight than put it on so im hoping once its off it shouldnt be as hard to keep it off and i will then discontinue the use of duromine. I havnt had really any effects when eating healthy on duromine beside a dry mouth which isnt that bad cos u want more water. If you want to try it i say go for it but do it right!

    Sami: Duromine has its own side effects. The side effects may not be same for everyone hence you should defnitely consult a doctor.

    anteos: Duromine takes time to show results. You may want to read the comment from joanngel.

    kylie: Thanks for posting valuable advice for the users of duromine.

    Nora: This is the result of duromine. With Duromine you do not feel hungry. Sleeplessness is one of the side effects of duromine.

    Nina: Since duromine has its side effects, its usually not presribed so easily. You may want to look at other similar options like proactol

    JessicaLucy: Please do not start duromine on your own just because you heard it from your friends. Duromine has its own side effects. Please consult your doctor before starting or opt for some natural alternative like proactol.

    Jabulile: Yes they can still use duromine with care. But as mentioned in the post, duromine cannot be used if you have any of the following conditions:
    1. you have very high blood pressure
    2. problem with valves in the heart
    3. heart disease
    4. narrowing of blood vessels

    Vee: Duromine is a prescription drug so even if you find someone selling duromine without prescription, you should not buy it. It may be a fake.

    Stephen: you will not have any side effects after stopping duromine. But your body will need some time to adapt without Duromine so you may feel restless for few days.

    Emma: Duromine is not known to cause any fertility issues. But you should definitely stop it if you plan pregnancy. None of the available weight loss medications are recommended during pregnancy.

    lis: Congratulations on your journey to weight loss. Please keep us posted on your progress. It will definitely motivate others who are on Duromine.

    Hi guys… I have been using duromine, 30mg for the past 3 months, and I have managed to shed off 12.88Kilos in total. I must say, I look a lot better than I have in a long time, and it feels really good. Side-effects…?? like any other medication, I suffered from these as well.. I had dry mouth/ a funny taste in my mouth… i had very few sleepless nights (only at the beginning), and a couple of headaches. It wasnt as bad as I had anticipated, (after reading and researching abt the drug)… I was almost convinced that I wouldnt buy it…cause ppl post some seriously freaky and scary things abt the drug. I still maintain, if you do things properly… your side effects will be very few and very short lived. (Oh…and i got a crawling skin sensation as well… just for a day or two – nothing creepy… just feels a bit like someone is caressing ur skin with some feathers)… but i must say, I am most pleased with the results. My apetite was reduced a lot in the first month, but right towards the end of the thrird month… I have been findng that every now and then, I crave things a lot more than I did at the beginning. Also, I work out. I make sure that I atleast go to the gym 3x a week, and have a good work out for an hr. I loved the energy I got from this med! This was quite lovely… always felt great going to the gym…a nd even better coming from the gym… So, now the hard part starts… I need to stop taking them… I am now 2 days without the pills, and I am not so great… I am so very tired… and I get nothing done. I find myself constantly thinking about sleeping and resting. this is a problem… this is going to make my life extra hard.. in terms of going to the gym,…. but after what I have been through…. I am not going to slack and fall back. I refuse to. I know the dark place I was at, and there is no way I am going back there. Now, I need to have the will power to do what needs to be done… eat right… go to the gym.. and just saty healthy! This is still a long long long hard journey for me, but I am taking this on! i will stay strong and keep posititve thoughts in my head. I will win. I still need to loose another couple of kilos to reach my target goal weight… so yah…!!! I just hope I dont get tempted to go and buy the tablets. I am not sre if I can take them for longer than 3 months. I havent heard of anyone taking them for longer than this, and I am scared. for now… I am taking it one day at a time, and hope that each day will be a lot less hectic than then previous one! Stay strong guys… we will get there! Eventually… weight loss is a lifestyle change and there is no pill in the world that will sort out this for you. Duromine is just there to give you the kickstart that you need, but it’s entirely up to you, to finish the race! All the best, to everyone!

    @Reb – Yes Duromine can have this sideeffect. Do not panic, this will last only for few days till your body adjusts to the change

    @Soekie – There is nothing you can do in such cases. Just take care in future

    @Jen – Exercise is very important to see results. Duromine can help reduce appetite & exercise will help lose the extra pounds

    @lerato – Duromine does have side effects but also shows results. Thanks for sharing your experience

    @lesedi – Thanks for sharing your experience. Keep updating us about your weight loss.

    Hi guys, I started taking Duromines yesterday, in the mornign I had a muffin a the afternoon only had an apple! This was totally weird for me as I normally binge on lunch time!! lol After work I had a Roti and that was it for the day…
    I’m on my second day and I’m feeling the difference already this morning I only had a banana (couldn’t even finish it) Just been drinkin lots and lots’o water… Think I’m on my 5th 500ml bottle now! Which is quite good as well…
    Side effects? Nah not much anyway, it’s just my mouth that’s dry, and my head jsut whisks away for a few seconds.. That’s about it… Compared to how I’d noramlly eat… This is quite a big change for me.. Will start to jog this aftrernoon… Haven’t weighed myself yet… Eversince I picked up weight, I’ve dreaded stepping on that thing! Anyway just wanna say thank you all for your honesty, encouragement and your guidelines!.. Much appreciated.. Oh and I’m a smoker (been trying to quit though) Yesterday I only smoked twice and I just went without even feeling the urge or craving to go for one… Today I haven’t gone for one and not even feeling like a smoke.. So I’d say Duromine is not only suppressing my appetite but also helpin me to cut down on my smoking as well! Cheers for now guys! Will be sure to keep you posted! (*_-)

    I started with Duromine 15mg yesterday. My starting weight is 92.4kg. Will the 15 mg work or do I need to take 30mg. My Doctor prescribed it to me. No side effect yet so lets hope it will stay this way. I also take probi flora intensive 9 strain – is it safe to drink it along with the duromine? What can be used in case of constipation as I already suffer from that my whole life? What is safe to use?

    reply
  • admin wrote on 11 August, 2010, 13:58

    @lessfatty – The headaches may be probably due to exertion. Try to rest & see if it helps.

    @MDK – You can take duromine with fat burner but you need to first confirm on the side effects of the fat burner. Some of the fat burners do have their own side effects.

    @MFani – Good to hear that you are already seeing results. Keep us posted.

    @Charmaine – Do not increase the mg yourself. Wait for few days to see how your body reacts. probi flora intensive would be safe with duromine. But as I always say “Consult your doctor first. Do not attempt to try something yourself especially with weight loss pills which have their own side effects.”

    @ Devika

    Can you please tell me if you continued to take Roaccitaine with the Duromine as I am in the same situation and a little scared. They are both strong drugs and I don’t want to cause myself any damage.

    Also, If anyone could please give me some good tips on how to keep the weight off after Duromine? I have been on 15 for 2 weeks and now upping to 30mg with about 2 months to go.

    When nearing the end of the 2 months, should I slowly get off it by taking one every second day? Has this worked for anyone? Before Duromine and now while on it I have been eating a healthy diet of 1000 calories a day. Plus gym 4 or 5 times a week. (Cardio, weights, classes) The only reason I’m not it is I seem to have an extremely slow metabolism and cannot lose much weight no matter how strict I am.
    Simply not naturally thin. I am having excellent results with the Duromine BUT I am petrified that when I stop taking it I will have to increase the exercise and eat less calories in order to maintain the weight. This would be extremely difficult!

    I have used Duramine have experienced all side effects. Lack of sleep, drowsie and feeling tired. This is when i was starving myself to death and had horrible side effects.
    Good balanced plan eat everything in moderation starch and sweets before 4pm good exercise i sleep like a baby do not want to be un Duramine forever as this can damage your heart.
    i recommend duramine to be used carefully with a lot of precaution it is only a temparary measure to get your system to eat small portions and healty. It is a very dangerous drug that can lead to fatal falls because of lack of rest and good nutrition more harm can be done to the body than good. Look after yourself good people.

    After 2 babies and a lot of dieting and failing I decided to try Duromine. I’ve been taking it for 2 days and have almost lost a kilo. Unfortunately I am not experiencing any extra energy, rather a real lack of energy and I’m very tired. I have also found myself grinding my teeth and chewing my gums. I slept very well last night and i would say it will be the same tonight as i’m soooo tired.

    Is it possible that these side effects will stop after a week or so. I would really like to experience some extra energy!
