Lexapro and weight gain?
I was just recently prescribed Lexapro and it says it has very low side effects and I didn't see weight gain as one. However, I researched it a little and saw that it has caused weight gain in a lot of people.

I was wondering, are any of you who gained weight on Lexapro already overweight, or had a lot of weight fluxuation before the drug? I am on the thin side (5'7", 120-125 lbs) and my weight doesn't fluxuate more than a few pounds, and usually thats right after I eat. I have a pretty fast metabolism so I don't really gain weight, but I eat a lot.

So, has anyone who was thin or normal weight gained a ton of weight on Lexapro?? So is it a metabolism thing??

Thanks for any answers!
Best answer:
My husband has been taking Lexapro for 2 months & his appetite hasn't changed at all.
Wish I could be more help.
