Not gaining weight on Lexapro

Posted by Baseball85 on January 31, 2013, at 11:55:45

I have been on generic lex for about 3 1/2 months. I exercise 5 times a week and eat healthy. I was healthy before I started the meds. I haven't gained any yet but is there a way to prevent it? I'm assuming not everyone gains weight on ssri's? I was on 10mg and doc just upped me to 15mg two days ago. Thanks!

I've never gained weight on ad's and was on 250 of luvox for quite a while. Haven't gained on the combo of luvox & lexapro. I don't think you will if haven't not all do. Phillipa

Thanks! I have read all those horror stories on the net about people gaining 30-50 lbs. That just seems absurd...

Many meds have put the pounds on me but never Lexapro. Good Luck
