Hi charlii, I was on gabapentin, had horrible side effects & so my gp changed me to Pregabalin. Feel much better on that. My weight has gone up & down all the time anyway. Haven't been able to lose it, but don't think I've had any significant weight gain due to my meds - in fact just recently, my clothes are beginning to feel looser, so perhaps I'm actually losing weight now!
