My psychiatrist put me on Epitec which I started last week Monday, I am on a very low dosage 25 mg X 2 weeks, 50 mg X 2 weeks, 100 mg X 2 weeks and 200 mg X 4 weeks. I also take quite a few other anti depressants but read of the weight gain in Epitec and now I am spooked,I realy don't want to gain weight.

Epitec contains the active ingredient Lamotrigine and weight gain actually isn't one of the commonly experienced side effects from it.

Have you discussed your concerns with your doctor?
