"i have been taking this medication for about 4 days now, still feel hungry and have some what of cravings, but i usually never have extreme cravings to begin w/. that beings said i did read someones review declaring not to quit yet, because it took at least the 2nd week before she actually felt like something/contrave was working. so i am hopeful that this is true. the drug does make me super super tired, which sucks, as i suffer from chronic fatigue, due to a tick born illness. i&#039;ll stick with it and i will post an update then....."
