Looking to get on an antidepressant. out of the ssri family which one has been known to not cause weight gain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
All might: Especially in long (>6mths) term use all have been known to, but Wellbutrin, Effexor (venlafaxine) and Serzone are less so and Zoloft is a bit less than the most reported - Paxil is the worst by reports. CBT therapy has no side effects and can help you minimize or avoid drugs - consider it as an adjunct so you can avoid long term use. Best!
