Brief Answer:
Hyper or Hypothyroidism? Answered earlier

Detailed Answer:

Good day
I had answered your question a while ago. If you haven't received yet, i will repeat the answer again.
Duromine can worsen the heart rate and can cause chest pain etc if you have a pre existing heart condition or if you have hyperthyroidism.

It is not clear whether you have hypothyroidim or hyperthyroidism. It is better to avoid duromine if you have hyperthyroidism. Which thyroid medication are you taking now ? Would appreciate a reply
Regards
Binu

I have an under active thyroid. I take oroxine to correct it.

Brief Answer:
Hypothyroidism is not a contraindication

Detailed Answer:
Okay, underactive thyroid ( hypothyroidism) and use of levothyroxine ( oroxine) is not a problem.You may use duromine under medical supervision for weight loss. However, you need to follow the local medical guidelines. Duromine is not licenced to use in many countries because of it's side effects.
