Sorry, but all psyco meds cause weight gain in most people. I prefer to be happy. I wish i had just 10 lbs to lose ! You might try another med
to see if weight gain did not happen. I really don't think there is a med that does not cause weight gain. Diet and excersise will help; pay attention to carbs. It seems in some the weight gain is caused by increased intake as many meds increase appitite (thats me !) but there also seems to be changes in the rate one burns food off. Excersize can increase metabolisim.Pat
