Venlafaxine

[clinicallydepressed]

Did venlafaxine make anyone else gain a lot of weight in a short timespan?

[Fruitsofspirit]

I been on it for years, come to think about it yes I did gain weight.

[NoHoWarrior in reply to Fruitsofspirit]

Yes. I gained around 25 pounds in 3 months

[Payitforward]

Yes I feel like it did for me, I am not liking the mirror that's forsure 😊

[Natsteveo]

Yes I gained over 4 stone in a year with it I’m still on it now

I don't know how much 20 stone is. I gained 75 lbs in 6 mos. I've never really lost or gained much either way for 20 yrs. I like to think of myself as well insulated.

I gained 5 stones in 8 months. I just don’t seem bothered about weight gain to stop it. But I am. It’s tough.

Yes I’ve gained 3 stone in 6 months and that in itself is making me depressed but I’ve been diagnosed with bipolar for 19 years and this is the only antidepressant which works. I feel like I can’t win really
