Racer,

This is the only thing I could find on PubMed about prozac and dose-dependent weight gain.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=pubmed&cmd=Retrieve&dopt=AbstractPlus&list_uids=16420086&query_hl=2&itool=pubmed_docsum

I also saw one entry on google when I searched on fluoxetine and "dose-dependent weight gain" that seemed to indicate that in patients with AN, there was a dose dependent weight gain in patients on fluoxetine therapy.

However neither I nor my instiution had a subscription to the journal, so I couldn't read (or post) the article.

From the little I know about prozac, however, I don't think much has been demonstrated about the dose-dependent effects of the drug on anything but seizure activity.

I guess my question would be do you think that Prozac therapy would help you tolerate weight gain if it occurred?

maddie

ps, i'll keep digging when I have time.
