    When I was diagnosed with Bipolar and Schizoaffective Disorder, I gained so much weight and are on the medications you have mentioned. I got bigger as the years go by but now I'm sort on a plate because my current meds are okay for me. I went through so much different drugs in 8 years and I'm glad I'm getting better, hopefully I won't need the drugs in the future just like what my doctor said.

      I'm praying for you Beloved. I have Lupus and Predisone really bloated my body. I found that fasting from food the first 12 hours a day Monday-Friday really controlled by bloating and helped me to lose weight. This isnt hard for me bc I work 10 hours a day and hate feeling full at work anyway. In the morning I will have a Smoothie and drink Green Tea (hot with Lemon juice and Honey), and Water throughout the day. I get home and shower and cook dinner and just rest after work. Sometimes I may have a snack in the Evening... especially if I'm watching a good movie. 😉 God bless you 🙏🏽💕✝️

    I came to this video because I'm on metropolol and amlodipine and I've gained 15 lbs in 2 months . I'm so upset because I worked so hard for a 45lb weight loss before I got in the medications

    Several years ago I was put on the antidepressant Abilify. Within 3 months I gained 20 pounds. It didn't seem to matter how little I ate or cutting out sugar, I just kept gaining. Finally, I asked my doc to take me off of it and she said that weight gain was the #1 reason that people ask to be taken off of Abilify. I soon lost the weight.

      Doctors do not want to discuss about the bad side effects of medicine. They know that conventional medicines have bad side effects. They raise the voice at me, they act upset.

    I was on Gabapentin and Prednisone for pain after shoulder surgery. I went up 16 pounds in three weeks. And, just recently I gained a lot of weight from a drug for pericarditis about 20 more pounds.. I am off all that now and am working with Weight Watchers to get it all off.

    ???Dr.
    Is it just the increased hunger caused by the medication that increases weight gain? Or is it a metabolic combination with increased eating.
    I’ve gained 30+pounds with Seraquil and it’s really gotten me down. I’ve never been this heavy.
    Thanks in advance.

    Gym memberships and a healthy food list should be part of insurance. Also, I think the government (Food and Drug Administration) does not want to make the new meds like Trulicty, Ozempic, etc. affordable because ppl would be healthier and not need to use the other meds and fewer hospital visits meaning less money for the hospitals and government.

    Seen a lot of doctors where I am located deny Lyrica causes weight gain even though big pharma makes it clear it can cause weight gain. Diet unchanged and exercising more, and been on Lyrica for almost 4 years. I have gone from 254 to 311 pounds. Thank you for being a knowledgeable doctor who is honest.

      He can't suggest a treatment plan for you because of the potential of being sued if you got sick while on the treatment. You would have to be an established patient for him to treat you. 🙂
