"i started contrave about 5 weeks ago and have already lost over 19lbs. i was able to up the dosage like suggested with only an occasional headache or dizzyness. i am very happy with my results. i was a drinker and now have no desire to drink. i also do not sit and obsses over when and what i will eat next. it has helped me with my obesssion for food. my energy level has incressed dramatically also."
