"update:  i&#039;m on my 4th week of taking contrave 2 pills am and pm.  i didn&#039;t have any nausea weeks 1-3 so not sure if i need to be on 2 pills in am and 1 pm.  i have lost 11.3 lbs so far so that&#039;s great!  i do exercise some as well.  i&#039;m grateful my insurance covers this at 100% as others stated it&#039;s an expensive rx."
