Can Cymbalta or Xanax Xr hinder weight loss attempts?

by andy on November 30, 2009

I have been on these 2 medications for around 2 1/2 months now. I haven’t gained weight on them but I have been trying to lose weight since I started taking them by going to the gym nearly everyday and eating much healthier and it has been 2 months and I haven’t lost any pounds or inches. What’s the deal? I’ve never had any problems losing weight before taking this medication. Can you not lose weight if you take it?

Amanda V November 30, 2009 at 2:16 pm: Yes. Anti-depressants have a way of messing with your metabolism. And benzos do that as well as tend to make you eat more without realizing it.
Give it some more time for your body to adjust to the medications and you will get back on track. Your body just has to get used to the mechanisms of the meds.
Tara J November 30, 2009 at 3:05 pm: Yes, Cymbalta can cause weight gain or weight loss. This drug will affect different people different ways, but it could affect your appetite and metabolism.

Xanax usually only causes weight gain when people eat freely after taking it. It doesn’t seem like it affects you like that.

I would not be so quick to blame the drugs, but if you have successfully dieted before but are now failing, it could very well be the Cymbalta. Speak to your doctor if it is an issue. Wellbutrin was not as effective in treating my depression (though I was stable on it), but I did lose weight. It could be something to consider.

Can Cymbalta or Xanax Xr hinder weight loss attempts?
