I too gained on Lex: 25 lbs in 5 months on 20 mg of Lex. I didn't gain anything on 10mg. I went up to 20mg after about 10 weeks at 10mg. I am not normally heavy & nor do I gain weight easily, so this has been a big shocker. My therapist said it's been her experience that it's a 3-way split: 1/3 gain, 1/3 stay the same & 1/3 lose.
Good luck!
