Re: Has anyone gained signifiYes, gant weight on Lexapro?

[Guest guest]

Yes, I too gained 10 pds on Lexapro in a matter of 3 months. I gained so much

weight that the doctor put me on a new medication, as of last week. She put my

on Wellbutrin. Only time will tell. Now I have to work out extra hard to take

the weight off..... err. I am ok about it, but I do feel SOOO much better.

Hi, I posed this question in my first post along with some other

stuff, but have not received any replies. My main concern on Lexapro

is the weight gain. The Lexapro is working well to alleviate my

symptoms of depression and anxiety but it seems to increase my

appetite. However, I have been watching what I eat now and exercising

at least 30 minutes a day and I am still gaining weight. To date I

have gained 15 lbs since July. I was 155 now I am 170. This is a

huge issue for me. Please, any input would be of help. Thank you.
