Does Duromine Reduce The Efficacy Of Birth Control Pills?
Hey :) I am a 23 year old female and I have just recently started taking duromine 30g. I m on birth control (3 months injection contraceptive). I wanted to find out if duromine cancels out the contraceptives in my system and would cause them to be ineffective fall or I m safe from falling pregnant ? Thank you xx

Hello,
The medication Duromine (phentermine) does not interact with birth control in general, whether it be oral pills or depo injections. I cannot say with certainty that there is no interaction because I do not know what contraceptive you are on. It is likely that the Duromine will not affect your contraceptive. To be sure, please ask your doctor about your specific medications.
