To crazy cat lady:
I am a retired nurse. I weigh myself every morning. This drug causes weight gain for me. It also makes my tinnitus
get more pronounced.

I’ve been taking this medication regularly for about 5 months and I’ve gained weight especially in my face chin. This weight gain is disproportionate to my body.

I've also have been on methocarbamol 4 about 5 mos and went from 128 to 132 so I think it does cause weight gain.

Re: Verwon (# 4)
I agree and disagree from not being active so much may cause weight gain yet since I started taking methocarbamol 750 mg I seem to be putting on the weight rapidly which I have never had a problem with so I do believe methcarmol does make one gain weight

Krazycatlady Says:
linda (# 1)- Weight gain and high cholesterol are not side effects of this medication. She should always read the printed information that come with her prescriptions after each refill. In case of any changes or additions that have been added to drug reactions or interactions. Weight gain can be caused by getting older,thyroid imbalance, menopause,etc. Also high cholesterol is usually inherited by family.My spouses parents both have high cholesterol. My spouse does as well. Also discussing these things with your physician is recommended. A lot of even healthy foods have cholesterol (nuts). Do to pandemic and not moving around and going out as much as you previously did or increase in more food than normal bc your home more can be a cause as well. As a nurse these are just some of the things I would look into. This is just a basic list. I hope this helps.
