My Phone is draining so fast

Start by identifying what is using the power. The system menu will give you some information, or a battery monitor app like GSam Batter Monitor, BetterBatteryStats or AccuBattery will give you more.

If you have a rogue app, get rid of it or restrict its ability to run/use data in the background.

Has anything obvious changed? Did you have an update before this started? Changed network or moved location? Is your signal weaker than before (weak signal coverage will drain phones quickly)?

Without information it's hard to give specific advice.
