Duromine

Good day all

I have a few questions regarding duromine and hope someone can help trough knowledge hereof or personal experiences.

I started Duromine today, so far only have dry mouth, running to the toilette a lot and very talkative, more than usual :smiley:

I have been on a schedule 5 combo antidepressant and anti anxiety medication for about 7 years now, tried to leave it before but then just fall right back into my major depression

I have read some experiences about people that used Duromine and when they leave it they go crazy, have anxiety etc.

I want to know, if I use my daily antidepressants with my duromine, if the antidepressents will maybe prevent me from having these anxiety etc. that some people get from the duromine or may it cause me to get even more depressed and suicidal?

I am also thinking of only taking the Duromine on Monday - Thursdays and skip Friday - Sunday, to try and prevent a lot of the side effects, will only know if it works after a wile, but will the Duromine work if I use it in this way?

I am also an occasional drinker, and was wondering, since I decided to not take Duromine on Friday's, Saturday's and Sundays, and I decide to have a drink on lets say Saturday evening if this will have a bad effect on me due to Duromine?

    You maybe better off talking to a pharmasist or your doctor about your concerns. I have heard of people getting addicted to prescribed meds so it is possible.

    Speak to your doctor

    As a completely anonymous person on the internet who is entirely unfamiliar with your circumstances and is not a doctor - I say you should ask a bloody medical professional.
  • Hi Stellasaur

    It was just a innocent question, for a first time Duromine user, no need to get all cranky with me

    someone that reads my post, might have had an experience with what I am asking and might be able to actually answer my question.

    E.G someone here might be on antidepressants and used Duromine, and can maybe share their findings with me, so that I can maybe know what to look out for or be aware of, or had a drink while on Duromine

    You did not have to answer my post, if you thought it was stupid, that's all I am saying
    I thought it was a support group

    I'm not "cranky with you."

    The only person who is qualified to give medical advice is a medical professional familiar with your circumstances. Anything else is subjective guesswork at best and dangerous at worst.
