Obesity
"Today is day 9 on Contrave. On day 1 I felt a reduction of my carb cravings and have been able to make better choices food-wise 99% of the time since then. I am after knee surgery so am unable to do any exercise but began 177.8 and today I was 173: a 4.8 pound loss in just over a week -- pretty amazing.



IMPORTANT: Contrave blocks ALL narcotics: no pain-killer or muscle relaxant CAN work -- valium, morphine, delaudid  etc. This was a scary side-effect when I wound up in the emergency room, so just be aware. I was on day 2 when that happened and had to stop and start again post-surgery/pain killers.



Slight nausea after pill 2 yesterday (day 8), otherwise really vivid dreams, a bit of sleep disturbance but no other side effects."
