I have been taking lexapro for years and have gained a total of 20 lbs and my eating habits have never changed I blame the lexapro and now I will slowly stop taking it due to this fact.I've tried losing the weight just about starving myself ,walking nothing works I truly believe it is the lexapro>
yes, it has sodium in it.
I took Lexapro for quite sometime. I'm off of it now and I'm losing lots of weight, but I'm sure it due to stress. Not a good method. Anti-Depressants should reduce snacking. Alot of snacking is from stress, nervousness, and a HUGE comfort zone...
will i gain a little weight on 5mg of lexapro and will it only make you tired at the beginning
The molecular formula is C20H21FN2O •C2H2O4 and the molecular weight is 414.40. This came up when I was looking for new info on lexapro.
Lexapro rarely causes weight gain. It is sometimes prescribed for patients trying to lose weight, because it alleviates the emotional symptoms that lead to 'stress eating'.
I have been on Lexapro for about a month now. My weight is ballooning. I want to come off of it before the withdrawal get to bad. Does the time you are on lexapro coincide with the amount of withdrawl problems? The problem is, I feel great taking the lexapro, but, can't handle the side effect
He's gained weight.
no, he should love u unconditionally. Whether u have gained 3 stone or not. Tell him that you would love him still if he gained weight.
YES
Lexapro is an antidepressant and should not be taken for anything other than what it is prescribed for. If you wanna lose weight, modify your diet and go to the gym. Americans are always looking for a magic pill....get some will power and stop looking for a magic cure!
