Bupropion / naltrexone
obesity
"I'm a 40 year old black female. I'm 5'6" and was 315lbs. I started moving more and eating less and got down to about 265lbs but I got stuck there. My doctor prescribed contrave for me about a year ago and today I weigh 223lbs. I wasn't able to increase the dosage as quickly as instucted but I eventually got up to 2 pills twice a day. I'm still taking it and the weight is still coming off. I've had no major side effects but I did experience nausea during the first couple of months. As long as it continues to work for me, I'll continue to take it. The price is a bit high but totally worth it. My doctor was able to take me completely off of one of the 2 diabetes meds I was taking. Contrave definitely isn't for everyone but I'd recommend it."
