Weight Loss
"The progress with this medication was really quick at first, 5-7lbs a week after just the first week. The headaches were manageable until I got to three a day and then the headaches and vertigo it caused almost made me stop all together. I was at a stand still with just two pills a day for longer than I should have been. Finally I read a correlation between the drug Metformin interacting with Contrave, causing headaches. I have PCOS, not diabetes, so I could stop taking them. A week later I was able to go up to three with no issue and have now been up to 4, for more than a month with no issue. The only problem I came across since is that removing the Metformin, my progress has slowed to 1-2lbs a week, no matter diet or exercise. 35lbs-3mos"
