Here's a crash course in SSRI weight gain. My twin bro and I both were on Zoloft last year after wbeing on SSRIS for years... we had both gained 70 POUNDS. That's right. We tapered off the Zoloft by the first week in June. It's now ending April.
My Twin Brother- SSRI free since June of '07- LOST ALL OF THE WEIGHT.
ME- I went back on Zoloft at half the dose in July - then moved to Lexapro at 10 MGS in April of '08- I've lost half of the weight so far.
So, there you go.... Pardon me but I see a correlation big pharma!
SSRIs are great, but the weight gain talk should be a blutn issue brought out by the pharma companies.
