just julie asked:


I also take Lamictal, Abilify, Clonopin and am tapering off of Paxil.
What effect has Prozac had on you or someone you know?
I hope to have more positive energy and lose weight. Paxil really has put the pounds on me.

MRose asked:


Lipitor
Klonopin
Ativan
Zoloft
Geodon
Lamictal
Trazadone
Phentermine (its supposed to be a metabolism booster)
Fexofenadine
Dicyclomine

I’ve put on 20 pounds in a year, and when I told my doctor my concerns, he actually laughed at me (yes, I’m looking for a new doctor) and said that they all cause weight gain (he put me on the last three and lipitor) but all the research i’ve done doesnt say they cause weight gain (he used zoloft as an example, and on the zoloft website it says it can actually cause weight loss)

so what gives? are the pills really to blame? i know its a nice little cocktail, but I havent found any reason for me to be gaining weight like this. i diet and excercise regularly, why do i keep gaining? (he checked my thyroid and he told me its not an issue, im beginning to doubt him…)

(i recently switched from ativan to klonopin and from lamictal to geodon, so im not on all of the above)
