Brief Answer: Yes they may be taken Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query. I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through. Duloxetine and Phenteramine (Duromine) are two different classes of drugs and do not have any significant interaction. They may be taken together. If at all you are planning to come off duloxetine, make sure that you do it very gradually as it has significant withdrawal symptoms. Hope I am able to answer your concerns. If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you. If not, you may close the discussion and if possible you may rate the answer for me, so that I get a good feedback. In future if you wish to contact me directly, you can use the below mentioned link: bit.ly/dr-srikanth-reddy Wish you good health, Kind regards Dr. Srikanth Reddy M.D.
