I have been on it for three years. It's hard to say whether my weight gain was due to it or to being cured of my anxiety to the point at which I could eat again. My pdoc assures me it's weight neutral.
I think it increases carb cravings. It took me a long time to lose 20 pounds because of those cravings, but I did, eventually.
I really think the anxiety reduction was the culprit, however. I am on a range of 250-300 mg.

Some thyroid drugs are known to cause weight gain.
