    It worked for me for about 6 months or so, I was able to lose about 20lbs. Then it just suddenly stopped working.

    Same here. But here is the worst thing: i now have gall bladder disease. In addition to screwing with your intestines like other opioids, it can mess with your gall bladder and bile ducts. With gall bladder problems docs often recommend stopping opioid intake to limit the pain and nasuea of gall bladder problems.(worst pain I have ever been in, six hours of agony)

    I'm due to see a GI surgeon soon. Until then I'm stopping the Contrave. I can't spend another night in the ER with an aggravated gall bladder.
