Do tricyclic antidepressants (imipramine specifically) cause weight gain?

xanax makes me hungry too. try buspirone

First off, You don't need Meds ! And as far as eating goes, if you really want to , you can turn it around, just don't starve yourself to do it, just change what you eat. Stay away from anything with Flour , High Fructose Corn Syrup, Fat, and Sugar. Also, read Labels. And if you can't pronounce it, don't eat it ! I didn't think that I could do any of that either. http://www.newstarget.com/ turned my whole attitude toward Food and medicine around.You have got to read through this with an open Mind.Better yet, subscribe to the free on-line Newsletter.I sure am glad I did ! Hope this helps !

most antidepressants don't cause weight gain- they actually make you lose a few pounds. Anti-psychotics and mood stabilizers( i.e lithium) might make you gain a little, some or a lot of weight. It depends on the pill.

Antidepressants of any kind can increase your weight gain. It's a crappy side effect, but it's inevitable unfortunately. Maybe switch to a different medication and you won't gain as much.

im on prozac and some say it makes you loose weight, and then gain it back. honestly i havent noticed anything. idk about xanax, talk to your psychiatrist or go on there website, those will help you out the best

It didn't gain any weight using Prozac.

check the side effects in the medicane's directions- it will tell you what to expect from the pill
