In reply to Re: Effexor or Lamictal causing weight gain, posted by rina on March 4, 2007, at 11:54:21
My pdoc took off the effexor and put me on wellbutrin. She said it was the effexor that was causing the weight gain. Whatever but I told her that weight gain was a huge problem thatwas effecting my mood. I dont mind a little weight gain but not this!!! She said after wellbutrin kicks in she would put me on topomax. After that I am finding another Pdoc who will actually inform me of these side affects! I do know that I heard that Lamictal can cause liver probs. Check with your doc. I would get screened for it just in case. I am sorry to say but some of those pdocs are not so good. O swear the just promote what ever they can for the kickbacks. We are their lab rats!
