In reply to Effexor and weight gain? Say it isn't so...., posted by janey girl on August 3, 1999, at 20:25:13
Hey There,
I hate to do this, BUT I too have GAINED WEIGHT on Effexor. It's not an usual side-effect. Most people loose weight. I'm very frustrated with this, so I've done some research. I found that adding Ritalin may elevate the effects of weight gain and tiredness (I have that also, a lot!).
Ask your doctor. Don't do anything careless... Believe me I understand! On top of my depression, I'm dealing with an eating disorder. It's almost impossible for me to handle this weight gain.
Let me know how you do.
