will i gain a little weight on 5mg of lexapro and will it only make you tired at the beginning
No, unless you are taking homeopathic medicine for weight gain
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'.
Generally Fluoxetine (US: Prozac) does not cause significant weight gain, but it has stronger sexual side effects. Also Escitalopram (US: Lexapro, EU: Cipralex) should not cause much weight gain.
To gain weight you have to eat more.
Yes, you will gain weight in muscle.
There is a side effect of weight gain with taking lovastatin.
Weight gain is a potential side effect of both generic and brand name Lexapro (escitalopram), as they contain the same active ingredient. The differences in weight gain between the two are generally negligible, as they work the same way in the body. Individual responses to the medication can vary, so factors like metabolism, lifestyle, and dosage may influence weight changes more than the brand. Always consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice regarding medication effects.
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...
