Obesity
"I&#039;ve been taking contrave for almost a year now and want to update anyone reading this on my experience.  I&#039;ve said it before and it still holds true, the side effects can be nasty.  I&#039;ve had most of them and am now experiencing quivering in my hands and head and hair thinning.  That&#039;s the bad, along with this med having the potential to be very dangerous.  The good is that the weight loss is real.  I&#039;ve been living by the diet I always follow when trying to lose weight and exercising same as I always have, usually 45mins 3x a week.  12 months on this drug has been the catalyst my body needed to let go of that weight.  I&#039;ve lost 80lbs and 15 bmi points.  I have 50lbs more I want to lose, and I&#039;m actually confident I will achieve that."
