weight loss
"It was tough at first. I was constantly dizzy, nauseated and just not feeling the best. Driving was the worst. It took a very long time to get over those side effects and still feel some to this day. I've been on Contrave for over a year now. Supposedly, there is mild antidepressant in this mediation. It might just be in my head but I do notice my mood change for the worst when I miss doses. Also, I have absolutely no desire to smoke anymore.  I used to love smoking especially when I drank, but after finally getting my body adjusted to this medication, I can't even stand the smell of smoke. 



You have to use the medication exactly as directed or it won't work. It doesn't make you not hungry, you just eat less."
