"i am on week 6 of contrave and have lost 14 pounds. i love this medicine because it takes the craving for food away, and i don&#039;t stress eat. i feel that my overall activity level has increased and i do not feel fatigued all the time. i drink a lot of water through the day and am eating a healthier diet. my exercise level is moderate. i can only tolerate 2 pills daily, when i increase to 3-4 tabs daily i get severe nausea and vomiting."
