Why Is Contrave Not Working (Page 4)

I took Contrave and lost 52 pounds in 10 months, which has put me back to my ideal body weight. The problem is that it has not been working after that 10 months. I don’t have any side effects, but have a ridiculous appetite now. Almost to the point of wanting to binge eat. Anybody else been on it a while and have it stop working? I’ve gained almost 10 pounds back in the last few months. I’m not sure whether to ask my doctor about stopping it, but I’m afraid my appetite will be even worse. Anybody?

Oh and I’m afraid to stop taking it too. Very.

Re: Mretz (# 5)

I am with you 100% I already have a crappy self esteem and I was so excited to lose weight and it was working! And then stopped. I’m still taking it and also picked up drinking lots of water and working out 3-4 days a week. And…I gained 2 pounds this week. And I’m tired of the “experts” asking if I’m watching what I eat, getting enough sleep, water, exercise..YES to all of that. Please give us some actual help-we already know to look for that or we wouldn’t be on it and paying monthly which is expensive. Worth it if it works.
