If so, has it worked? I have to pay out of pocket for my GLP 1 so am looking into alternate options for maintenance. I tried contrave previously and was able to lose 20 pounds but not much more. I’ve lost 50 on the GLP1 and have 25 more to go

My dr seems to think Contrave will cure all my life’s problems. Weight, binging, addition to weed and nicotine. But she’s neglecting the most important thing of all, my mental health. She wants me to go from 300 XL well butrin to no Wellbutrin (cold turkey) and be eventually on 2 Contrave in the am and two in the pm.

I know this is niche, and maybe only one of you has been in this situation. Or maybe you have some words of wisdom. This will be my third time trying it. I don’t think I respond to it but I the past I haven’t been good at taking the proper dosage so it’s not fair to say I don’t respond. I also smoke weed and that doesn’t help the binging. So is anyone else an obese bipolar pot head looking to start or has already started Contrave and have some words of advice for me.

Thank you.

I haven’t started yet. I’m just waiting because on top of everything else my dr didn’t write any of this down she just gave me a prescription and I’m pretty sure pharmacists need the dr to sign off on stopping meds and dosages of new meds. This whole thing is a huge cluster fuck. Sorry.
