Dyspnea
51 Topics FoundI am off contrave but still having breathlessness. How long will this last? ## How long has it been, since you stopped taking it? Are you on any other medications? Unfortunately, there's really no specific time frame anyone can give you, because it can vary from person to person, and may also depend on how long you were taking it. The FDA doesn't list this as being a normal side effect of this medication. Have you been checked out by your doctor?

Contrave
I have been suffering for 20 long years from (COD) and am getting breathlessness.

This is what I want to know please. ## Hello, Azad! How are you? Sorry about your health issues. Since it isn't a medication, there is no information available on how it may affect or interact with the medications you're taking. Thus, I can only advise you to discuss it with your doctor, before taking it. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I want ...

My wife experienced alarming bradycardia (heart rate <50 bpm), weakness and dyspnea after only 5 doses of Multaq. She has been a long time user of the antidepressant Nardil. International package inserts (PI) disclose inhibition by MAOI's of Multaq's metabolic clearance. Regrettably the US PI does not disclose this potential for drug interaction. I have urged both Sanofi and the US FDA to correct this omission of useful information. ## In response to your request for more information: Heart rate returned to the normal range (~75 bpm) within 5 days of discontinuing Multaq. We are in Scotch Plains NJ ## So, she's doing better now? II certainly hope she is and yes, if this is an issue then it is something that they definitely should warn about in the drug monograph. Your po...
