Can Duromine And Metformin Be Taken Together?

Hey there, my doctor prescribed me Diabex (metformin) a few weeks ago, after having a initial adverse reaction (itchy rash) he told me to stop taking it. However I had experienced this type of reaction when I started on acne medication in the past. So I kept taking it, luckily with no other reactions. He has recently prescribed me with Duromine, I have not taken it yet as I am still reading up on it. I really just wanted to know if it is okay to take Duromine & Metformin together?
