Obesity
"This is my 3rd day on contrave and the side effects are what are worrying me. Severe nausea comes and goes throughout the day. Sometimes it gets so bad I can&#039;t even get up and move around. I have also had sporadic hot flashes and excessive sweating. The worst side effect I saw it was on the first and second day hello when I would have terrible drowsiness to the point where I had to hold my eyelids open just stay alert and aware of my surroundings. I&#039;m not going to stop taking the medication but I&#039;m worried because my doctor prescribed for me to increase a pill each week until I am on 4 pills a day. I&#039;m a female, 25 years old, 5&#039;3 &amp; weigh 253lbs. Is this too intense of an increase? Suggestions are appreciated."
