Duromine is a medication used to reduce body weight in obese or overweight patients. It contains the active ingredient phentermine, which is an appetite suppressant. Duromine is indicated as a short-term adjunct in a medically monitored comprehensive regimen of weight reduction based on exercise, diet (caloric restriction), and behavior modification in obese patients with a body mass index (BMI) of 30kg/m² or greater who have not achieved an adequate clinical response to an appropriate weight-reducing regimen alone.
