For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I'm 5'4" and 165 lbs, on thyroid meds, and have not been able to lose the weight from my last child. I took Qsymia a year ago and lost 15 lbs in 3 months, but the side effects were insomnia, which I've never had in my life, and dry mouth. Cost per month was nearly $300.00, not covered by insurance. I gained half the weight back and decided to try a different medication. Now on Belviq XR, my Dr. gave me a discount card, and it only costs $98.00 as opposed to $300.00. I have been taking it for 4 days and have lost 3 lbs! It has not curbed my eating, although I do feel that my appetite is suppressed. I have not had issues sleeping, but my muscles do feel sore, and I am a bit sluggish at times during the day. I have felt like I'm about to get a UTI for a few days now. I also had a few times standing up where I felt dizzy. Those are all the side effects I've experienced."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I have been taking Belviq XR for a week. I noticed since I started taking it, I have been very cold and drowsy, and I also have dry mouth quite often. I feel the side effects are worth it because I've lost 4 pounds. I don't want to binge eat all day like I did before I started taking Belviq, I am satisfied with lunch and dinner."
