Hi, I am very slim. 5'2 and no more than 95lbs and that's pushing it!! I have no appetite and a very fast metabolism!! I cannot afford to buy any weight supplement over the counter. I don't have a doctor as of yet either as almost no doctor will accept patients who are on Oregon Health Plan!! Anyway, I am trying to find out if CB1 can be prescribed by a Physician or only available OTC? Also I need to know what prescription weight gainer pills are out there so I can research them for when I find a Doctor very soon. Thank you ## Hello, Sarah! How are you? There aren't any prescription weight gain medications, so to speak, there are some that may cause weight gain as a side effect, but they only do that as long as you're taking them and yes, the CB1 requires a prescript...

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...

I am 35 lbs underweight and have been trying everything there is to gain weight, including drinking Boost with extra protein and calories, whey protein with 2x the lean muscle building qualities, eat ice cream by the gallon, whole milk, I exercise - everything but cannot gain in fact I just lost another 2 lbs. Is there a medication that will help me gain weight that is FOR this purpose ? ## Unfortunately no, there isn't a medication just for gaining weight. There are some that doctors will sometimes use when someone is extremely underweight, such as in the case of people undergoing cancer treatment, or for AIDs patients, but they are all medications that are actually intended for other purposes and just can cause weight gain as a side effect. This can happen with most steroid class ...

I want to gain weight, with a good structure, hips and boots. please help me. what tablets can I starting taking?? ## I want a drug that can give me a good body structure,hips,buts in Ghana ## What medicine can i drink to gain weight fro South Africa Pretoria ## I want to know if I'm taking prescription drugs is it safe to take cb1 also ## @Chichi, gloss & lizzy, There are no drugs that directly cause weight gain. Only the amount of food you put into your body and the number of calories burned can determine whether you gain or lose weight. Perhaps it would be best to consult with a nutritionist or dietician who can assist you with meal planning. Incorporating various forms of exercise at varying intensities may also be of great benefit towards achieving the type of body/figure y...

I've been on some kind of thyroid medicine for nearly ten years. Maybe two occassions where my prescription has had to be altered. They want me to come in every six months for a check up, which is one vile of blood and not even a 1/2 hour consultation. I can't afford to go that often and they just cut my refills until i set up an appointment. Is this legal or am i just going to javeto deal with this kind of thing for the restof my life. Why can't i set up an appointment when i feel the effects kicking in, i know this condition so well i can tell when things will start happening. Like the weight gain, fatigue, getting cold easy. ## Not "legal". File a complaint with your state's medical bureau. That said, have you told your Dr's office you can't afford to ...

Hi there. I tend to sleep A LOT. I fall asleep easily as well. I was told by a friend that I might have iron deficiency. I HATE meat. So I was prescribed in the Middle East to use pedivit. I just wanna know it it'll. because I honesty don't want to sleep a lot. Makes me get headaches. I'm also super skinny. So would that help me gain weight as well? Are there any side effects? Oh and I heard that it makes hair grow faster? Is that true? Oh and just one more thing is there any medicine that could take that could help my hair grow faster? I'm a female and I really really want longgggg hair. Thanks :) ## Hello, Zee! How are you? Pedivit is just a multivitamin, so it may help if you are anemic, tired and underweight due to a deficiency in something, but that's the only w...

I am the same. I have lost 85 lbs over the last 1 year. I have gastroparesis. After 120 days on linzess I am up 15 lbs. I was holding my weight before this prescription. I'm gonna stop this for a week and see what happens. I actually fasted for 1 1/2 days taking weight in A.M. and P.M. only having water and fruit juice (Low Sugar) and didn't lose anything? ## Hi Chuck, I don't know if this is would accurately describe the type of weight gain you mentioned, but according to nih.gov, Linzess (Linaclotide) is known to cause swelling or a feeling of fullness/pressure in the stomach region that may appear as added weight. It can also cause excess gas to from, which may also contribute to feeling bloated. I'm thinking perhaps either of these side effects could be the culprit, ...

Is it possible to get a prescription for Metforman/glucophage online or to find it online? I am worried, because I have been gaining weight rapidly this past year. I am morbidly obese, and my doctors will not help me because my A1c was only 5.5. I am worried about type 2 diabetes, and I think my A1c is high enough that medicine may benefit me, even though I am technically not diabetic yet. I have read about diabetics who get their A1c below 5.5 with metformin, and there seem to be no adverse affects even when they continue taking the medicine at these levels. I am also having problems with ovulation and was recently diagnosed with endometrial hyperplasia, a condition associated with insulin resistance. I have been struggling to conceive for three years now. Ultrasound shows no evidence ...

I want to find Rumoquin NF. It' a purple round pill. Where do I have to go to get a prescription? Also can it be delivered to the United States? ## Rumoquin contains the active ingredients Dexamethasone and Methocarbamol. This combines a steroid with a muscle relaxant to treat pain and swelling. As to where you can order it, I am not certain. Have you tried just doing an interent search? As to delivering it to the states, it is possible, however, since these medications are available in the U.S., thought not in a combine form, it is actually illegal to do so. They only permit the importation of medications that do not have an equivelent available here. Side effects to using this can include: nausea, dizziness, weight gain and drowsiness. ## I would like to know the dosage for Rumoqu...

Was trying to order periactin weight gains my appetite is down i go maybe 2 days without bein able to eat i think its stress but i am losing to much weight ## Because Cyproheptadine (Periactin) is a prescription medication - at least here in the US - you will need to visit a doctor in order to get it prescribed. Something to keep in mind though is that if you intend on using this medication for weight gain, doing so may be a waste of time in my opinion, since Cyproheptadine is an antihistamine and weight gain is only listed a possible side effect that may or may not occur. So if you ask me, hoping for 1 side effect to pull through doesn't necessarily sound like a feasible approach to weight gain. Have you considered discussing appetite stimulants with your doctor or maybe even an he...

I was prescribed Lexamil 5mg and I took 1 on the 11.11.2010 before reading the prescription note. I am feeling so overweight, and my bowel movement is totally altered. How long does the effects last? Alternatively how do I reverse this? ## Lexamil contains the active ingredient Escitalopram, it is an antidepressant. Yes, many of them can cause some weight gain, however, taking on pill is not enough to have that effect. It may have caused some bloating and intestinal upset, however, these are normal side effects and should wear off in a few weeks as your body adjusts to the medication. There is also no way to reverse it, other than to just stop taking it for awhile. Have you spoken to your doctor about this? ## I have been on Lexamil for about 18 months now and I struggle terribly with m...

Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) appears to be the herb that is most often used to increase milk supply. It has been reported to be an excellent galactagogue for some mothers, and has been used as such for centuries. The few studies that have been done have had mixed results [Swafford 2000, Reeder 2011, Turkylmaz 2011] . Keep in mind that in almost all cases, non-pharmaceutical methods of increasing milk supply should be tried first, as there can be significant side effects from both herbal remedies and prescription medications used to increase milk supply. See the Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine’s protocol #9 on the use of galactogogues.

I was prescribed seroquel xr only for sleep 150 mg for about 3 to 4 years. Gained about 30 lbs Read on other forums there is no hope getting the weight off when you wean off the drug. Well not true for me anyway. I have been off for 3 months and have lost 16 lbs so far and not dieting. Nothing So wanted to give others hope that it is possible. ## Hi Donna Weikel, It's quite unfortunate that some prescription medications can cause weight gain, but at least you were able to lose the weight you gained while on Seroquel xr once you stopped taking it! Everyone's body is different so even though some people may not have luck with losing the weight, it doesn't mean that it will be that way for everyone. I'm sure your post will be very helpful to those currently dealing with wei...

Where can I find peractin pills and how much do the pills cost? ## Because Periactin (Cyproheptadine) is a prescription medication, you're probably going to have to make an appointment with a local doctor in order to see about getting it prescribed. However I do question how an antihistamine for allergies is going to help with weight gain? As far as pricing is concerned, some sources suggest that you may end up paying anywhere from $15-$30 for a 30 day script of the 4mg tabs. There also happen to be plenty of coupons out there (including one on this site) that can help cut down the cost for you if that's a problem. Please post back if there's anything else I can help with. I wish you the best of luck in reaching your goals! ## My name is Ann you will have to get a prescripti...
