<<Oh, yeah. Had an uncontrolled weight gain with Lexapro 10mg/day. My Dr. put me on 150mg/day of Wellbutrin, which seems to have stemmed the gain.

Yeah, I am starting to put 2 and 2 together. I have been on Lex about 8 months at this point and I have noticed in the last few weeks that I have gained about 6-7 lbs (started out at 160 or so), and now none of my pants fit! This is weird cuz I have never had a problem with my weight before, so I can only think it's the Lex. I have also started feeling more depressed, anxious, and obsessive, so maybe the Lex is pooping out? Anyway, I also asked my doc to put me on Wellbutrin, and I have been on WB XL 150 a day for maybe 2 weeks and I still can't seem to lose this weight! >:-( Hope this helps.
All the best!
