Obesity
"I am 31 yr old female, 5&#039;6&quot; at 248 lbs. I have a thyroid  issue and was struggling to loose weight. My Dr prescribed me contrave to see if it would help kick start my weight loss (lost 15lbs previously but had plateaued). I had high hopes for Contrave, but after a month and 1/2, I&#039;m done. It immediately made me feel shakey and jittery. I tried stretching out the increase in pills but it didn&#039;t seem to make a difference. I got up to the 4 pills/day but other than not eating as much, I haven&#039;t lost any weight. I actually gained a couple of lbs. However the worst side effect was the constipation. I tried taking fiber pills, eating lots of vegetables, etc and nothing helped. I even tried a laxative which helped some. I felt miserable!"
