Re: Effexor XR vs. Paxil and weight gain

Hi! I just went off of Effexor, partially because I was no longer depressed and partially because I had a tremendous weight gain over 2.5 years, accompanied by extreme lethargy. I have started Wellbutrin, which is supposed to have the opposite effect according to my doctor. He tells me that Effexor is known for causing weight gain. My experience is proof enough for me. 75 pounds worth of proof.

I have been on Paxil for about two months now. Like everyone else, it's working BUT the weight gain is horrible. Has anyone lost the weight after switching to Effexor?
