I need to know how to stop taking contrave. Can I just quit cold turkey or do I wean off? If I wean off how do I do it?

I have had pretty much the same experience except it's not just my fingers that twitch. It's Mt arms, legs, feet, hands, and even my ab muscles. I'm weaning off now. I hate this medicine.

I agree. I have never felt this bad and finally today I just put two and two together after reading and researching more on this medication. I have had headaches, can’t concentrate, constipation, anxiety, easily agitated. Family has noticed a change. I have felt really tired all the time. And tired even when I wake up. Can’t keep my eyes open at work. It’s terrible. I have decided to wean myself off since I can’t stand feeling this way. And I don’t have the patience to wait another month or so for it to be in my system
