I've only been on Contrave for 4 days and I've gained 6 pounds. My legs, feet and stomach are swollen, so I assume it's retention of water? Anyone else had this reaction? ## The FDA does list that as a possible side effect, along with nausea, dizziness, irritability, nervousness, and insomnia. Have you consulted your doctor? That is always the best thing to do to be sure. Such rapid weight gain can also be a sign of other potential risky health issues, such as congestive heart failure. Are you on any other medications? ## I have been drinking a ton of water since I started the meds last week. I would be sure you are drinking a lot. That will help with the fluid retention. ## Hello everyone, I am at the beginning of week 5 and have not really lost any weight. Maybe a pound or...

My side effects I've been a headaches, some nausea, but I'm having trouble with motion sickness. My headaches went away. Am I nausea never made me throw up.

I even get sick strolling through the internet or the guide on my TV. I dont want to stop taking the contrave. Since it seems to be ...

Was taking phentermine 37.5 and lost 28 lbs but now there not working as well how can i keep losing ? ## How long have you been taking it? Sometimes, once our bodies get used to a medication, it stops working as well for us and we need to make a dosage adjustment, or try a different medication, entirely. Have you informed your doctor of the problem? The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, insomnia, and anorexia. ## Same happened to me. I found online that if you drink water with lemon it helps. There are articles on this. Just google phentermine and lemon juice. ## This happened to me and my doctor prescribed topimax along with it and it worked together and started working again.

Does anyone know if you can quit cold turkey or do you have to wean off? ## When a patient is taken off Wellbutrin it is usually weaned. I would think Contrave would be the same. ## Hello Contrave Dislike, According to the National Institute of Health it is typically suggested that you wean off of Contrave, however, they will take into account how long and how much of the medication you have been taking. Please consult your doctor so that he can tell you if you need to be weaned off or if you can simply stop taking the medication. Here is a link to a similar discussion where people have talked about their experiences with quitting Contrave.

This substance almost feels too good to be true: An all-day stimulant with few side effects, tons of euphoria & a mild comedown. The medical literature reveals nothing untoward about it, only that it was banned in the U.S. due to "drug abuse & psychiatric events", which could certainly apply to Adderall, Desoxyn, Dexedrine, or Ritalin. Furthermore it's technically legal due to being an analogue of a CIII drug (Benzphetamine). So not truly "banned", just not approved for prescription or sale. As we all know, there are no free lunches in the drug world. So what am I missing about clobenzorex? Is it uniquely toxic to the heart? Brain? Does it raise blood pressure more than other uppers; damage the liver or kidneys in some way? (Examples of uniquely dangerous sti...

We recently were given 6 cases of Jevity 1.5 cal. The expiration date reads 1SEP07. My husband vomited immediately after feeding through the tube in his stomach. Shouldn't Jevity still be ok to use after 5 months shelf-life? ## Can I use calcium tablets MFD: 04/2007 EXP: 03/2009 ## If you need help with drugs please ask God for healing just say out loud now Jesus I believe and I accept you in my heart please heal me and free my mind and turn me into your helper. I know this will help you. ## On the Jevity, I am sorry,. I don't know, however, since it is a product for nutrition, I would suggest it is probably NOT a good idea to use past the expiration date. Ramnarine, they don't get dangerous past the expiration, but will slowly lose some of their potency. Are there any other...

I had bariatric surgery in 2016. I lost 100 pounds, but since then I've gained 20 back and still have 70 to go. Can I safely try taking Lipozene? ## Hello DeeDee, According to the NIH and the Lipozene website there are no "interactions" between having this surgery and the medication, however, due to the fact that the surgery places a band it is unwise to do anything that could stretch the stomach. Lipozene works by stretching your stomach and making you feel full, which could be dangerous with a band installed. I personally do not think this is a good idea but there are no general warnings I could find on lipozene saying you can't. I strongly recommend that you discuss this matter with your doctor prior to starting just in case. I hope this helps. Have a great day. ## I...

I have been on Phentermine 37.5 for about a week now. The first few days I saw a few changes in my eating habits however this week everything is back to normal.....cravings, eating etc. Am I doing something wrong? I've heard these pills work for almost everyone, but I've not had any luck with any diets....... ## For the most part Phentermine does tend to work for a lot of people, but there is always the chance that it may not work well for 'you'. If you're taking it as directed by your doctor, pharmacist, or by following the label, then I don't see any reason why you might be doing something wrong. I went ahead and posted the dosing instructions below in case you may be doing something different: "Dosage should be individualized to obtain an adequate response...

What pain medications are safe to take on Contrave? I have been taking Tylenol arthritis and glucosamine daily and am now starting the 2 and 2 this week. Also large hard to pass stools, so I'm taking laxatives as well, but don't want to harm my liver. I feel great on Contrave. I was on Adipex and all it did was make my mouth very dry and make me agitated. ## Hello, Lisa! How are you? Contrave contains Bupropion and Naltrexone, the latter of which neutralizes opiates, such as Oxycodone, and Hydrocodone. So, you can take Tylenol with it, unless your doctor instructs you not to do so. Glucosamine is considered to be a supplement, so any possible interactions between it, and most medications, have not been studied extensively. Is your doctor aware that you are taking it? Whether or ...

No, there shouldn't be any problems after such a short period of time, but you should check with your doctor to be certain. Why are you stopping it, already? The FDA lists the typical side effects of Contrave as possibly including nausea, dizziness, insomnia, dry mouth and diarrhea. ## After reading all these posts, I have nearly waisted $ 70.00 because I a seriously wondering if Contrave is really worth it for me.

This is pure amphetamine 50mg and it will melt the fat off of all the while you have constant energy. It's purchased in any mexican pharmacy and cost 20.00 dollars. A six month supply are allowed thru customs and immigration. ## The only thing that melts fat is getting up and exercising on a daily basis with the right nutrition. Pills don't make you lose fat. It could possibly make you lose a few pounds of water weight while dehydrating your body, but nothing more; anything more would require physical exercise and/or changing dietary habits. This is false advertising: "it will melt the fat off while you have constant energy". When in reality: If this pill provides you with more energy 'and you use this energy for exercise', you 'could' burn fat at a quick...

I would like to know how anyone is doing with long term weight loss using Contrave and a healthy lifestyle? ## It has been very helpful for many people that take it, but the key is exactly what you mentioned, you have to maintain a healthy diet, and lifestyle. Unfortunately, many people expect medications to do all the work, while they continue to eat whatever they want, and/or lead a sedentary lifestyle. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, mood changes, and anorexia. Ref: Contrave Information Are you currently taking it?

I am a truck driver and get random drug tests. Will Contrave make the test come back positive? ## It's possible depending on what is being checked, but the good news is that neither of the active ingredients in Contrave (bupropion/naltrexone) are considered a controlled substance. Here are some general guidelines: "A driver cannot take a controlled substance or prescription medication without a prescription from a licensed practitioner. If a driver uses a drug identified in 21 CFR 1308.11 (391.42(b)(12)) or any other substance such as amphetamine, a narcotic, or any other habit forming drug, The driver is medically unqualified. There is an exception: the prescribing doctor can write that the driver is safe to be a commercial driver while taking the medication. In this case, the ...
