Hi

I was put on Fluoxetine (Prozac) about 6 months ago, and since then I have put on about 20lbs. Ironically, I was prescribed it for compulsive eating but my appetite seems to have increased.

Although I feel a lot better in myself (more sociable and better about myself) I am eating a lot more than I want to. I do loads of exercise which doesn't seem to be working any more for weight loss.

Does anyone have experience of gaining weight on Fluoxetine then switching to a different AD and losing weight?

I'm new to this site and am posting this as I'm desperate for help.

Thanks x
