If you’ve been trying to lose weight for a while, you may have stumbled upon a drug called Duromine. Duromine stimulates your central nervous system to keep your appetite low so you can eat less throughout the day, and it's very effective for weight loss when coupled with a diet and exercise plan. If you’re curious about Duromine, talk to your doctor to see if it’s right for you and your weight loss journey. You should never buy Duromine online or from an unregulated source, since it could be dangerous.
Steps
Who should not take Duromine?
-
Don’t take Duromine if you’re allergic to anything in it. Duromine capsules contain phentermine, lactose monohydrate, liquid paraffin, magnesium stearate, gelatin, titanium dioxide, and iron oxide black (CI 77499). If you know you’re allergic to any of these, talk to your doctor about an alternative.[5]
-
Anyone under the age of 12 shouldn’t take Duromine. There haven’t been any studies on the effects of Duromine on children. If you’re young, stick to diet and exercise to keep your weight under control.[6]
-
Don’t take Duromine if you’re pregnant or have an underlying condition. Duromine isn’t safe for people who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Similarly, you shouldn’t take Duromine if you have a history of heart disease, you have high blood pressure, you have an overactive thyroid, you have glaucoma, or you’re taking other diet pills.[7]
