Duromine- the only drug that works for weight loss

For me, I started about 4 weeks ago, lost about 2kg a week. As of now, I've lost a total of 8kg. I'm currently on 15mg. I started to gain weight about 3 years ago. My previous weight was 42kg and I'm 158cm. As I have a petite frame, my weight gain was very obvious, and I have the habit of binge eating even when I feel full when I was feeling unhappy or stressed. Basically, I grew up in the states for many years. 3 years ago, I moved back to my hometown, that was when all the weight gain and binge eating started. I was in a lot of stress everyday. Subsequently I gained a whooping 18kg. Everyone around me started noticing the double chin, the cellulites, the extra flesh that I've gotten. I would often hear people around me telling me, "My!! You seemed to have gained A LOT of weight!!" It was until when my mom started telling me that I really needed to slim down ASAP, as the fats made me look like an aunty instead of a girl in her 20s.

I wasn't really a fan of slimming products. I started taking Herbalife last year November 2013. It did help at first. I lost about 4kg in a month, however, I gained back 2kg and it stay stagnant thereafter. It was until when my friend introduced Duromine to me. At first I hesitated, as I know that there are a lot of side effects and some are really bad ones. However, I pluck up the courage and took the plunge. My doctor was really patient with me when I asked a lot of questions. He also told me not to take it for long term. As long as I've reached the weight I desired, I will need to stop.

I would say, I had never regretted taking the pills, even though I am experiencing dry mouth, sleepless nights (this doesn't really bother me as I always have sleepless nights and I'm used to it), constipation, temper / emotional changes. I am happy with the results and it is obvious to everyone around me that I've become slimmer. I told myself I will stop the medication once I had reached my ideal weight and keep my weight with no binge eating, etc

NEVER exceed one pill a day. Please stick to one pill a day.

not everyone can lose that much weight that fast. The best amount of kg to lose in a month is 4kg if over that it will bounce back very easily. Overly much, isn't good. Mine was about 8kg in 3 weeks, which is too fast. I've cut down my pill intake to 1 pill every other day. it's also best if you seek a doctor's advise rather than asking people here as not everyone will experience the same side effects or weight loss.

I joined a weigh loss company & lost 12 kilograms.  Do the math - 2.2 pounds equals 1 kilo.  I have kept that weight off for three years now, but need to lose much more prior to elective surgery.  I stopped dieting because of a fractured ankle.  I was told by the company that they could not deliver the packaged diet food - that they'd see me again when I recovered.  Needless to say this was unhelpful.  My G.P. was reluctant to prescribe Duromine.  She stated that I was the only person she had done this for.  This, despite knowing weight loss clinics use it.  Anyway the side effects it has are helpful to me.  I had gynae surgery, but continued to have some urinary incontinence.  Drugs specific to this did not work.  The anticholinergic effect of duromide (the dry mouth symptom indicates this is right) allows me to get back bladder control.  You can chew sugarless gum to correct the dry mouth.  Otherwise I do not experience sleeplessness or hyperactivity after the first day's dose.  The half life of the drug (its absorption into body tissues) allows several days of bladder control after I stop taking it.  My experience of the drug is that it's like throwing a switch in the brain.  You can just calmly tell yourself that you don't need to eat, or not yet, without having to fight a raging appetitite.  Prozac has a similar effect.  

Hi,

I had done the Duramine for a while, and did the same as you 'had a rest' If you want to have a rest you have to have a good 5-7 day rest i found if i stopped for 2 days and then started it again the same problem as you, had no effect (i think your body adapts to it) not sure. Also I am on the implanon, I put 20kg over 3 years from being on it. I have lost weight on Duramine but it has taken a looong time. I have been taking a few months a time for the last 8 months because i am trying to loose weight for my wedding. I have lost 12kg now 74kg down to 63kg. I just got the implanon out today, and i am hoping it stops these stupid cravings that i have (when i am not on duramine). I am also exhausted when i was on the implanon and came off of it. I slept for 3 days (not all day but most of it). I dont think implanon helps with weight at all..... unfortunately i am forced to stay on duramine until my wedding (in 2 weeks) because i cant afford to come off it and be tired as i still have wedding stuff to organise, but after that i am going all natural!

I have the same problem

What strength Duromine are you/were you on though? My doc will only give me one month of 15mg :-(

Hiiiii. . I now spinning is a hard cardio exercise. .. I was just wondering if you maybe had te next symptoms while or in the middel of your spinning. .. because I play squash as hard as your spinning in the morning and in the evening I go to gym for weights but also cardio. . But now while I'm playing only squash it feels as if blood pressure is dropping. . I get bluerd vision and I tend to shake and my hand's gets tingling. ..

Hi I've just been prescribed Duramine for Hashimotos in the hope that I can loose some weight. I have steadily been gaining over the last 18 months and am now 90 kilos the heaviest I've ever been in my life. I would like to get down to 70-75 kilos to feel heathy again I'm 51 years old and at the end of my teather with all of this. Reading all the other post gives me a little glimmer of hope that I can once again stop wearing my rent a tent clothes and get back into clothes that have not fitted me for quite a while. Here's hoping.

Hi I suggest u take 30mg. 40mg never worked for me and FEW of my friends but 30 you start losing weight straight away. It's great!! I can't sleep much at night but it doesn't bother me coz im always full of energy on it. I go on a 2 months course then have 2 months break. I have been on it for atleast 5 years. But its true that once u get off it, you will probably wana eat twice as much n all the junk there is lol. Alcohol and dromine don't go together, I didn't read instructions properly. The doctor told me everything but that.... I nearly ended up in the hospital. Felt like my heart was going to jump out of my chest and I got really terrified!
