All of the other side effects are there again, and I am getting the appetite under control, but how many stupid milligrams am I going to have to take before I see results? I am really disenchanted and sad about this. Why go through the other side effects if I am not going to stop eating like a sow???


Thanks for the explanation. I still, with the 50 mg, have got a little appetitite loss and tingling but no other side effects. Still no migraines either so am happy to stay at this level. That is interesting that it is being tried for binge eaters. What type of mood swings is it supposed to be helpful for? I will have to look to see if it is helping mood swings. I don't have a lot be have been known to be irritable at times. Thanks - Nitro.
