When Will Side Effects Subside?

I quit taking Contrave after a month because it made me so sick. How long after stopping the pills will the headache and nausea go away??

Hello, Jill! How are you?

It may take a week, or so, for things to settle down and return to normal, according to the NIH.

Did you experience any of the other side effects that the FDA lists, such as dizziness, nervousness, or insomnia?

No, I really only experienced the headaches and nausea. Plus, I really didn't feel like the medicine lessened my appetite. Epic fail for me! Boo
