Is It Safe To Take Champix And Duromine Together?
Hi, I was just prescribed Duromine to suppress my appetite and lose a bit of weight. I have also gotten a prescription for Champix to cease smoking. I wanted to know whether it would be okay to take both these medications at the same time? Im also on the birth control pill Diane 35.
Thank you

Hi,
Thank you for posting your query in healthcaremagic.com
This is Dr. Swarnava dattagupta answering your query.
I understand your concern.
See, duromine is phentermine used for weight loss and champix is varenicline used for quitting of smoking.
Now, you can take these two medicine together. They dont have any major drug interactions but nausea, vomiting, insomnia etc can sometimes occur.
Serious reactions like pancreatitis or cholelithiasis are extremely rare.
Hope i have answered your question.
If you have any further questions i will be happy to help.
Regards
