For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "The first week seemed fine enough at first: tingling in feet and hands, dry mouth, and diet soda tasted awful, so I stopped drinking it. After one week, I noticed the sluggishness when forming a thought, the forgetting things moments after the thought entered my brain, and tingling in my face. I also had some issues sleeping. Talked with my doc, and she confirmed all of this was normal due to the Topamax, and it was up to me to continue. I had already purchased the month's dose at the time I got my free dose, so I decided to stick it out and try it. The first day of the doubled dose was absolutely awful. I felt anxious, and my face was numb and tingly from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., no exaggeration. I immediately stopped. Lost 12 lbs but not worth it."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Qsymia helped me lose 10 pounds in 5 months. My doctor started me out on the lowest dose, and it increased to the highest dose. The side effects I had were tingling in my hands and feet and sometimes fatigue. At my last doctor visit, she and I decided I could try this journey on my own to see how I would do. Shoot, I gained 4 pounds back in one week!!! I'm still on the same diet and exercise program. I have read a lot of success stories on this site, and I wish everyone that has a positive story much luck!! No hard feelings... It just wasn't for me."
