From my own experience:
*Avanza stacked on the weight.
*Effexor had no effect.
*Prozac had some intitial weight loss then stabilized.
*Edronax had no effect.
*Zoloft had a little gain.
It really depends on the indiidual. We all have different reactions to different drugs.
Good luck!

I'm currently taking 20mg of Prozac and I haven't put any weight on, it doesn't really have many side effects other than the usual effects you get when starting an antidepressant.... Ive also taken Lexapro, it did make me put weight on..

Welbutrin (for me anyway). I believe Alderol is a stimulant - but they may use it for other things. I used to take an Anti Seizure med for migraines & it worked well. I would ask your Doc - they tend to know which ones are weight neutral.
I know I would AVOID Zyprexa and Depakote. They made a friend of mine totally blow up - like 30 lbs in 30 days. That kind of makes depression WORSE... LOL
Good luck!
