Can Duromine Cause Dizziness As A Side Effect?

I started taking duromine in July 2015, I took it nearly everyday for about two months and then the final month I missed quite a few days here and there as I didn t need it as much. I have started to take it regularly again but I am feeling quite dizzy when standing up after lying or sitting for too long. This may be due to an ear infection as my head feels like it is full and ringing. I have been to doctors and have been prescribed antibiotics for ear infection. I have just consumed a 250 ml Red bull and I am feeling dizzy like my head is spinning just sitting down. Is this something to be worried about?

Hello dear
Understand your concern.
Overdose of duromine can cause dizziness.

Duromine is a appetite suppresent drug.
Following are the common side effects:
Headache,
nervousness
High blood pressor
Loss of libido
Constipation
mood cahnges
loss of sleep.

But i think it may be due to ear infection that affect the vestibular system.
You should consult the ENT specialist for that.
But red bull overdose also can cause dizziness.
So i think it may be additive effects all.
Consult your doctor for managing and changing the drug.

Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
