Neurontin weight gain - Survey

Posted by MM on July 29, 2001, at 1:50:03

I thought neurontin didn't cause weight gain, but it seems like most gain weight with it. So I'm wondering how much.
1)How much did you weigh before? (if you don't mind answering)
2)What is your age? (if you don't mind answering)
3)How much weight did you gain?
4)At what dose do you think you started gaining?
5)If you've gone off the neurontin because of weight gain, (I haven't heard of other negative side effects)
were you able to lose the weight?

I had no weight gain even after taking upwards of 6000 mg of Neurontin per day for unipolar depression. {Welcome to my body: 75% Neurontin, 25% Psychotropics.}
