Hi..
Welcome to HCM..
Duromine is contraindicated in pregnancy though there are no studies available as it causes weight loss which is not advisable during pregnancy...
You can take duromine as long as you want along with the diet and exercise regimen for weight loss..
Stop taking duromine at least one month before you plan to become pregnant as the early weeks of pregnancy are crucial for development of organs and we don't want any side effects of drugs at that time..
Hope this information helps you..Will be available for further queries..
Take care..
