Re: weight gain with Effexor

In reply to weight gain with Effexor, posted by Paul Simon on June 22, 2000, at 2:29:35

Paul,

I gained 40 Lbs on Effexor in 3 months!!!!! I was stunned and shocked and disheartened... Effexor was added as an adjunct to the other drugs I take and really never helped me. I was in sort of a disconnected depressive haze, and didn't realize just how much I put on until I saw a new Doctor just last week. He immediately had me taper off the Effexor- I have already gained so much weight from the Celexa, I did NOT need another 40lbs!

Is the drug helping you enough to justify staying on it?

-Good Luck!!
Shelley
