Have others taken Duromine to lose weight while on anastrozole?

The search results don't mention anyone using Duromine specifically while taking anastrozole. However, weight gain is a common concern for people on aromatase inhibitors like anastrozole, especially during the first year of treatment.

Many MyBCTeam members have shared their struggles with weight management on anastrozole. One member mentioned gaining 35 pounds, while another said they exercise six days a week but still gained 10 pounds.

Before starting any weight loss medication like Duromine while on anastrozole, it's really important to talk with your oncologist. They can:

* Check for potential drug interactions
* Ensure it's safe with your current treatment plan
* Help you explore other weight management strategies that work well during hormone therapy

Some members have found success with tracking food intake, limiting alcohol, gradually increasing exercise, and working with a registered dietitian. One member shared that walking daily for six months helped them become pain-free from anastrozole side effects.

Your medical team can guide you toward the safest and most effective approach for your specific situation.
