In reply to Fear gaining weight on PAXIL, not NARDIL, posted by UgottaHaveHope on April 26, 2007, at 18:49:45
When I posted, I was trying to be very specific: I was saying that, while the three behavioral patterns you mentioned in your first post may be involved for some people who gained weight on Nardil -- and I presume other ADs as well -- they were not the sole contributors of weight gain.
These drugs -- anti-depressants of all classes, anti-psychotics, anxiolytics, etc -- cause chemical changes which lead to weight gain for many people. Not everyone who gains weight on any of these medications does so because of behavioral changes.
That is what I was saying. I'm sorry if you didn't get that the first time. I tried to be clear.
