What is the best antidepressants for weight loss. i'm very depressed ?

Not the reason for: the prescription. The SSRI's are all fair at not increasing the likelihood of weight gain, but are not best for weight loss. Perhaps Wellbutrin, (bupropion) but I have a small sample size of patients as a measure for weight loss on an antidepressant. Bear in mind that depression itself often causes weight gain so getting help for your depression at all is likely to help with any weight loss goals you have.
