> well mogger covered most things. The important thing to figure out is why is she gaining weight. Is the drug making her hungry and unable to control appetite? reducing energy so not getting out and moving as much? if its something like that you can target symptoms. theres also ephedrine, yohimbe, nicotine, thyroid, etc. i also wonder if it ahs something to do with hormone changes
Sometimes, people just gain tons of weight on Depakote - no rhyme or reason. Well, of course there's a reason, but I don't think it has been well studied. It is probably metabolic.
