Lexapro + weight gain? more..
| Fri, 05-19-2006 - 8:41am |
So you know, I am going to also post this to the antidepressents board.
I am switching from Wellbutrin to lexapro. I am also on a weight loss journey that is going well. I am concerned about any weight gain that may be associated with lexapro. I know they say there is a low risk, but I guess I want real life peoples experience.
Thank you so much!!!!
Hugs and love to all
Wendy

Hi Wendy, I am on the Lexapro and have lost weight on it.

Thank you ladies for you input. I see that my fear of weight gain is haulting my switch... I am just so fearful of any weight gain. I have lost 28lbs and have about 30 more to go. I don't want to back track.. I have worked so unbelievably hard at this. I m however tappering off the wellbutrin, but havent started the lexapro yet. I guess as my husband says that if I start to gain, I can tapper off of it as well, so I guess i really just need to bite the bullet and go get the rx filled!
Thank you so much for you input it is so valued.
Great to see all of you as well.
Wendy
I'm curious if the Wellbutrin helped your anxiety or was that even the reason you were taking it?
