I lost 16kg taking varying doses of Duromine and have kept it all off! Appetite suppression was super helpful for me, as was losing 5kg in the first 2 weeks. I found losing the weight made it easier to get a great gym session done and running was easier - that was the biggest motivation. I did get slightly anxious on the 40mg dose, so dropped it back to 20mg per day and it was perfect, but I'm very tolerant to stimulants. Be warned though, you have to put in the work for it to be effective, it is not a magic pill solving all your issues. Train ...Read more

I’ve been on Duromine 30mg for 7 days now and I have dropped 4.8kgs in that time frame.
I’ve only worked out twice out of the week but I am fairly active at work. Always on my feet for 7+ hours a day. I’m eating healthy keeping my calories under 1600 for the day. I’m even struggling a lot of days to hit 1000 calories.
My starting weight was 114.8kgs and I’m now 110kgs just after 7 days.
I don’t notice much change in my appearance but the people I work with and my friends have said my face and neck seem slimmer which is a good sign.
My goal ...Read more

The first time taking this drug :
lost roughly 20kg in 2010. (age 22)
I would have a giant iced coffee (skim milk and sweetner) and then I literally wouldn't eat for days upon days. Having a cheeseburger every five days or so. So i went from 110kg down to 90ish in the space of about 2 months.

Time in between:
Lost a little more weight over the next few years on my own/dabbled with dexis and alcoholism and just really bad life stress and trauma, unfortunately . so anyway Went down to 83kg at my lowest. Weight fluctuated with a slow increase...Read more

October 3rd 2022 Update: This is perfect way to help

This is my second review now onto my second m...Read more

I started taking 30mg on the 24.06.19, I am 33, height is 165cm and my weight was 76 kilos.
Today, the 3.08.19 (6 weeks later) I weigh 69 kilos. Goal is 65 kilos.
As it suppresses the appetite quite well, I have not had an issue with eating smaller amounts, between 900 to 1300 calories a day with minimal carbohydrate intake.
I workout 4-5 times a week, mainly cardio.
I recommend starting duramine on days when you’re not working as it does affect your sleep for the first few days and makes you quite hyper but that had settled down for me by day...Read more

I was 118kg, now im 95.3kg, my goal is 85kg.

I have used 3 courses of duromine 30mg since 8th of september 2018. They arent magic pills and you won't keep the weight off unless you put the effort in. I got my gp to put me on a free healthcare plan as I had type 2 diabetes.

The plan comes with 3 free visits to a dietician, there you will start to learn about food and nutrition. I also do weight training, started with 5x5 stronglifts then moved to full body and am currently on legs push pull split.

Every 10kgs you lose you'll have to work ou...Read more

I am Female, 52, with around 40kg to lose. I have used Duromine before, it was around 3.5 years ago and I had good results then so was keen to have another go as I hadn't maintained good diet habits after I stopped taking it. I had started to consume larger meal portions and to also eat unhealthy snacks in between meals. I have also never been a breakfast consumer. Other than weigh loss, my main purpose is to alter my eating habits into a healthier sustainable pattern.
As before, I have no trouble sleeping, not even after day 1. I usually ...Read more

I was on 30mg for several weeks. It was hard to find a doctor who would prescribe it.

The following is from my personal experience:

Pros:
Fairly fast weight loss with minimal effort.
Massive increase in energy. I was always buzzing.

Cons:
Increased anxiety, Insomnia for the first few days no matter what time I took the dose (I would finally fall asleep well after midnight and then be awake within 2-3 hours feeling ready to get up for the day) Intermittent memory fuzziness, Mood swings (Moments of unusual agitation where as I’m usually ...Read more

27 year old was 150kg and got to 140kg before starting duromine. I than hit a wall with my weight loss for months I just couldn't seem to lose any. So my GP got me on this. Iv Been on the 30mg for 9 days now. Have lost 4.5kg so far! Been going gym 4 to 5 times a week like normal. 1st day was intence on this stuff. I had so much energy and got so much stuff done. Since than I havnt felt as charged up but still feel like I have lots of energy. I didn't really sleep at all the first 5 nights but have been fine now. It really does stop me from want...Read more

OMG people stay away from this medication. It is banned in Europe and UK because it can cause heart valve problems. Im now 66 and took it when I was 16. Its virtually the same as speed, hence the hyperactivity and not sleeping. I found I was talking at a hundred miles an hour as well. 20 years ago I was diagnosed with Pulmonary Hypertension which is terminal. The first question Drs asked me was had I even taken appetite suppressants. I told them yes, Duromine, and they said at the time, "mmm the jurys out on that one at the moment". They are m...Read more

I have been on Duromine for almost 4 months now. I've lost 23.9kg so far. Wow! I havetried for years to lose weight! My main issue was always wanting to eat unhealthy foods. My doc provided me 30mg. My points I want to mention are:
1. Dry mouth is good. It's made me significantly up my water intake
2. I di get a weird feeling of phlem in my throat a lot
3. I sweat loads more. But again, that is a good thing
4. My brain doesnt constantly beg for unhealthy food! This is what made my weight loss!
5. I have become an extremely picky eater. I see ...Read more

I have not used Duromine in the way directed, due to the significant side effects. Rather, I take a 30mg tablet twice a week, with two or three days between doses. I find the effect actually works for two days (I start getting hungry towards the end of the second day), but side effects of sleep distruption, constipation etc. are minimised. Also may help to miminise risk of addiction and withdrawal. I am basically using Duromine to support 5/2 fasting, which is medically proven to work. I have lost weight at a sensible rate (7 kilos in 8 weeks...Read more
