In reply to Weight gain Effexor?, posted by TrishP on May 24, 2005, at 8:30:57
Some do, some don't on Effexor. I'm one of the "lucky" ones in that Effexor makes me lose weight ... not a whole lot but around 10% of total starting body weight. It was more pronounced when I hit the 250mg dosage and onwards. At one point it was combined with Seroquel and the weight loss became rather scary. I was so agitaed in my sleep and sweating so much that I ended up losing a pound per week, no matter what I ate or did. It was rather scary. But Effexor by itself had only a mild effect on my body weight.
