I am currently on Duloxetine 30mg. Was taking 60mg but recently decreased because I don’t like the side effects. I have gained 30 lbs since starting this medication about a year and a half ago. My Dr doesn’t seem to think it’s the medication, but I don’t know what else it would be. I am definitely not active anymore, which could also play a part, but that’s a lot of weight to gain in a year.
What treatments have you all tried that did not cause weight gain?
I agree the medication can cause weight gain. I use a high potency CBD isolate oil. It suppresses my appetite so I don’t eat as much. So it can cause weight loss.,. Also, I take Nucynta as needed when fibro id really bad...no wait gain from that, either. A lot of antidepressants can cause weight gain as a side effect.
my husband and I are doing keto, as I have noticed a difference in how I feel when doing this, and we loose weight. We have just gone back on as we have been off keto for a year now. Giving up sugar and flour really did make a difference for me.
I really need to lose. Ive tried different things but cant seem to feel good enuf long enuf to see it thru. Thinking bout seeing an endocrinologist
Ive gained alot. Biggest ive ever been. I try to exercise by walking but not always consistent cuz of pain and been terribly hot
Ive gained alot too and having hard time getting it bavk off - i do believe its medication!!
