... week of taking 2 am & pm.
However, I do like this drug so far. My appetite is decreased and I no longer eat for no reason. I just eat very small meals and exercise 4 times per week. After over 2 months, I've lost 24 lbs. I would like to lose 50 or 60
Contrave - Had to drop back to one am and one pm. I started having nausea and dizziness on my 3rd?

Wow! You are having great success; it must have been difficult to go down on the dosage. My nausea and headaches were the worst on 4 pills so I went down to 2 a.m. and 1 p.m. So far so good with that dosage. I still notice some cravings with only 3 pills (on 4 pills I had virtually no cravings). I want to go back up to four, but I am going to give it at least another week or two before I change. The dosage you are doing now sounds like it's really working for you! That is GREAT news! I hope you continue having such great success! Your post made me realize that I really need to exercise more than I am currently doing -- which isn't much. Ugh.
