Obesity
"I started Contrave on a Sunday.  That Tuesday, I woke up with a weird sensation.  I felt like I was going to pass out.  I felt my heart beating really fast, and we pulled out our blood pressure machine.  It was 200/160!  So, off the hospital I went.  Went to ER, and they did all the tests, and it came back clean.  Doctor felt it was the Contrave, but told me to keep on it as my body was adjusting.  When I started my second week I noticed my anxiety attacks returning.  One night, they were so bad, that I had to utilize my back up medication to help me.  After that issue, I decided to get off the medication.  I&#039;m not saying it&#039;s a bad drug.  However, the effects I experienced greatly outweighed the potential benefit I might receive."
