Bupropion / naltrexone
obesity
"I was considering bariatric surgery, my Dr. asked me to try Contrave first. I started at 277 lbs. I started taking Contrave and reduced my carb intake, and have noticed that with the Contrave my portions have been much smaller and I've not wanted to snack between meals.  Within the first Month I had lost 12 lbs. I did have some dizziness week 4 when I added the 4th daily pill, it only lasted about a week and I've not experienced any side effects since.  I am now 3 months in and 31 lbs down- almost 1/3 away to my goal.  I've added exercise to my routine (3X weekly 40-60 mintues each time) in the last month, and I feel like I have more energy and my joints are less achy.  Would definitely recommend for anyone needing to lose weight."
