"i have been on qsymia since late september 2016. so far i have lost 26 lbs. this medication has helped cut my cravings. nothing i have tried in the past has worked this well. it&#039;s not without side effects. some dizziness upon first starting and increased heart rate. i may need to talk with my md about increasing my dose. i continue to loose weight but my appetite is a little heavier than its been. by far i recommend this to anyone who is serious about getting healthier and dropping some serious weight."
