Weight Gain Drugs

After 10 years of attempting to gain weight its failed every time. I see all these people who have shared the same problem. Us skinny people need to stick together and demand justice for being ignored of our unhappiness. Some people cannot gain weight simply with diet and exercise the same way obese people cannot lose weight with diet and exercise as well. Its our bodies our choice of what we want. Im 28 5'3 and always could never get passed 105 ended up dislocating my knee cap and having back problems due to my lack of weight and body mass. After my first child i went from 117 to 103 in a week lost my breasts butt and curves in general im extremely angry to the fact that i have to fight and push doctors to finally do something but enough is enough im going to demand (not ask) demand f

I am extremely underweight and skinny. I am a female aged 25 years and weigh 45kg. Pls help. I need a drug/medicine I can use to add weight fast as I am so sick of hearing that I am too thin. ## Gabapentin!!! It is an anticonvulsant. Ask your doctor and google it. People always gain weight when they take it. ## An anticonvulsant medication like Gabapentin should probably not be used for it's potential weight gaining purposes only, just because others have said that they gained some weight while taking it. For all we know, they could've also changed their diet and/or lifestyle while they were taking that medication; leading up to an extra few pounds. I'm not saying that it wont help you gain any weight, but the bottom line is, if you want more control over your weight (throug...

Sorry about the weight issues. It is actually not safe to try to use a medication solely for gaining weight, they all carry the risk of causing problems and side effects. What types of food do you eat? The best and safest way to gain weight would be by getting a lot of proper exercise and eating a healthy, calorie dense diet. Have you consulted your doctor for assistance? ## I didn`t get the name of the drug that i can use to gain weight

I am taking nexium daily. I have found it necessary due to my rheumatoid arthritis drugs causing terrible acid reflux. It works for its purpose well, however I have found it has put about 30 to 40 pounds of weight on me since the start of the daily routine. If anyone else has suffered this fate i would hope you would comment under this thread. I feel the weight gain is much more common than the "rare" connotation that is associated in side effect listings. ## Hello, Mick! How are you? Yes, I have to agree with you. Most medications in this class do cause weight gain more frequently than that which is listed in the FDA side effect reports. However, there is also a chance that your other medications could also be contributing. What else do you take?

I am switching from Lexapro to Zoloft and was wondering about weight gain. Has anyone had problems with weight gain while taking Zoloft? ## I found it is almost impossible to lose weight when you are on Zoloft. When I go off Zoloft, my weight falls quite easily. But when I go back on, I do experience weight gain. ## Yes, weight gain is a normal side effect of most SSRI antidepressants. There are two reasons for this, one is the effects of the drug on your body and the second is due to the fact that some people who suffer from depression and other mental illness issues, do not eat properly and when these drugs help them to feel better, they find their appetite returning and their eating habits improving. The good news is that the weight gain is not severe and you weight will not continue...

Is there a problem with weight gain taking neurotin? Also, I was told it is not a safe drug and has had several lawsuits. ## NEURONTIN FOR MOOD DISORDER ## You are for sure going to gain weight and NEVER feel full on it. Lyrica and gabitril are just the same also you will feel HOT like you are going to catch a fire. ONE NASTY MEDICATION ## I've taken both medications. The Neurotin didn't help at all but I've been on the Lycria for several months now. I've had minor weight gain but have never felt like I was going to catch on fire or even a hot flash. Both of these med's have been used for years. The best thing to do is speak with your doctor. ## The effects of drugs vary from person to person, there is no way of knowing if it will cause side effects or weight gain fo...

Hi doctor I need I drug that will make me get fat I look so small among my friends pls help me am 32yrs. Thanks ## Hello, Dre! How are you? Being fat is actually not healthy, it's very dangerous, because it taxes the heart and lungs, as well as other organs. How tall are you and how much do you weigh? ## Its not your job to tell someone what is healthy or not. I belive one doesnt need to do medicine to know the basics. If one requested for weight gain tablets. Refer them.stop making up stories and wasting everyones time.

Since taking Piascledine I have experienced weight gain, mausea and headaches. I cannot be sure it is the Piascledine but the other drugs I take I have taken for years and have not had any of these side effects. I have taken Piascledine for four months now for Rheumatoid. I also take Eltroxin and Rivitrol and Oxpolafor for restless leg syndrome.

I'm 23 year old female weighing 36 kgs , height is 4" I want to gain weight I've had no health problems ## Hi amanita, If you need assistance gaining weight in a healthy way, I think (from my own experience) that your best bet would probably be to focus on eating enough nutrient dense calories to from protein, carb, and fat sources together to make more wholesome meals. But if you have a hard time consuming more calories in one sitting, you can also choose to eat smaller portions more frequently throughout the day and/or rely on high calorie shakes in between meals. I've tried various approaches myself and those are just a couple examples that worked for me in the past. However, I'd still encourage you to speak with a dietician for that one-on-one personal assistance...

Hi. I am 23 years old, height 5'6 and weight is 50kg. I want to increase my weight. I eat a normal diet, but I am not gaining weight. Please suggest me some effective pills or supplements. I am working a night shift. I want to put on more weight but not too much. Please do reply. ## There are many medications and natural herbs that promote appetite. Ask your Dr. about them. This isn't the place to come to asking about drugs because we don't write them. A MD does. An MD also knows (generally) which medications will help. But, remember if you are taking any appetite suppressant such as a stimulant then of course other drugs are not the answer. If you take a stimulant for a legitimate medical need then you've probably been on it awhile. The appetite suppression just like th...

I have been taking finasteride for about two years now, and it seems to me that I have developed increased abdominal flab. Thankfully, no breast development (yet!), but I definitely feel an increase in size around my waist and below. The literature available suggests that weight gain is not a side effect [1]; however, it appears to me that it might be, as I have gained about 7 to 8 pounds. I would be interested in hearing about others' experiences in this regard. Thank you. ## I can confirm from personal experience that both finasteride and saw palmetto caused rapid weight gain in the lower abdomen. I've tested this out and found that it takes a few weeks after stopping for my metabolism to pick up again. My theory is that a hormonal imbalance is created when taking drugs with D...

I am a 34 year male, and I weigh 53 kg (116 pounds). I would like to gain weight, are there any drugs that can help me gain weight? ## 36 yr male ,Height 5'8", 54 kg thin body.by proffession interior designer.mani.pls prescribe some medicin ## From a nutritional standpoint, the first thing I would suggest is portioning out your meals every 2-3 hours (somewhere around 4-6 meals per day). These meals should include natural nutrient dense foods with little to no empty calories, so you can get the most out of each meal. Another option which would be useful to include with the above information, is to supplement with something that will increase your appetite. Depending on your view, medical marijuana has extreme appetite increasing properties; however there are other pills/products/...

I am an 18 year old woman with a height of 158 cm or 5'2, and have a weight of 40.5. I badly need to gain weight, especially because I am a nursing student. Please help me on what drug to take so that I can gain weight and have a normal BMI, as soon as possible. Your replies will be much appreciated ## Oxandrolone and/or Primobolan are anabolic steroids that have such a low androgenic effect as to be safe for children. Women fitness competitors are a sterling example of the efficacy of the drugs. So it might be something to look into for weight gain as well. the anabolic/androgenic ratio for both drugs is about 50/1 (you'll stay efeminate and cute). ## Anabolic steroids aren't safe for anyone, except when used under very strict medical criteria. That's why they've be...

I was wondering if I can safely take CB1 along with prescription drugs? ## Can I take CB 1 pills even I'm taking a Blood Pressure medicine like Losartan ? ## Since it is an over the counter supplement that is not FDA approved, there have not been any studies done regarding its safety when combined with prescription medications. The main issue here is do you really need to gain weight? As in, are you underweight, right now? Since you mentioned Losartan and high blood pressure, it is very important that you know it is not safe to gain excess weight, when you have such a cardiac condition, because extra weight is very taxing on your heart and circulatory system, so it could worsen such a condition, and cause new ones to occur. The American Heart Association has some great information a...
