"Hi guys I&#039;m 20 years old and have previously written about contrave . I&#039;ve been on it since May and have lost 15 pounds . Unfortunately I have to stop taking it for 9 days because of a rhinoplasty . Just so everyone knows, my doc swore that I would have w/d symptoms from stopping cold turkey , because of the burprion in it . He was completely wrong . It&#039;s been four days since I&#039;ve stopped the med and I feel amazing . Contrave doesn&#039;t act solely as an antidepressant as Wellbutrin does there for it doesn&#039;t cause the withdrawal symptoms of Wellbutrin aka burprion . The problem is that many doctors don&#039;t even know what contrave is. This drug is amazing and I can honestly say it stops opiate, alcohol, and food cravings even after stopping it"
