HI all...I have been prescribed Duromine 30mg. I am 106kg (5"6'). I have been a yo-yo dieter all my life. Last year I had Thyroid Cancer and had it removed. Ever since, despite being on medication, I have ballooned out, putting on 30kg in the past 6 months.
I took my first dose of Duramine this morning at 7am, 45 mins after taking my thyroid meds. I ate a bowl of porridge at 7.30am. It's 9.30am and I am hungry and want to snack. I am not feeling any side effects so far.
Do people have any recommendations for taking the dose, e.g. with food, with certain food, etc? Also, I commute for work 4 days a week so take Thyroxine at 5am and arrive at work at 7am to have breakfast soon after. I would think it would be sensible to take my Duromine at work just prior to eating...certainly no later given some people experience insomnia (a big issue in my life; I take Mertazapine at night to help me sleep).
Any advice for this newbie is welcome!!
