Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to the EmpowHER community. Thank you for reaching out to us with your concern.

For the benefit of all our readers, Duromine is an appetite suppressant. Hunger cravings are reduced as the active chemical ingredient, phentermine, which effects the parts of the central nervous system.

Phentermine is chemically similar to amphetamine and can cause irregular periods.

Anonymous, please mention this to your physician who prescribed this diet pill.

Regards,
Maryann
