All I can say is I've been on it 2 years and 9 mos. I've lost around 30 lbs. I take 150mg early in the am and 150mg no later than 3 pm. I don't have insomnia problems unless I miss my 3 pm dose and take it later. I'm also on Serzone, which also helps me sleep. Yes I get constipated.

I don't know your situation, but would suggest looking at the time that you take it, up the dosage slowly (you'll have to go through the side-effects of irritability, excess energy, etc. that occur before it kicks in every time you up the dose). Look at your caffeine intake and reduce or eliminate if you have not yet done so. Eat your vegetables and fiber-rich foods...

Good luck!
