What Causes Pain And Tight Sensation In The Chest While On Duromine?

Hello , I am currently taking Duromine 30MG . I have been on Duromine for two months, through out that period I sometimes got a tight chest nothing serious and it wouldn t last for more then 3-6 hours.. I stopped taking Duromine to give my body a rest for two weeks.. I am now on my third month of 30mg ( second day) and I ve had a really tight pain in the left of my chest when I breathe ? I feel okay no pains anywhere else.. This has been for the past 24 hours . What should I do? I am a smoker and drive 1-2 coffees a day but I also am healthy don t drink alcohol or have bad foods. I haven t taken the pill today because I m a bit nervous as I haven t had the pain last this long before . It s only when I take deep breaths in and out it hurts.. My doctor told me this was a normal side effect but it s been longer then 12 hours and I haven t taken the Duromine tablet in 12 hours. Should I continue to take it when the pain goes as my weightloss has been successful? Should I go to emergency?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Yes, it is due to Duromine which is one of the oldest diet pills in the marketplace.

Phentermine can cause restlessness, insomnia, agitation, increased heart rate, chest discomfort, headaches, increased blood pressure, dry mouth, and vomiting.

Please visit your doctor and get yourself fully reevaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr AJEET SINGH, General & Family Physician
