IF you take a prescription med for Anxiety and Depression, What do you take?
I am on Zoloft and want to change med. Zoloft has caused me to gain weight.
I take lexapro and rexulti for depression and gabapentin and ativan for anxiety
Previously took effexor and did well. They started me too high initially but adjusted.
@sarah.s3 initially I had weight loss bc it was way too strong for me. That tapered off as they lowered my dose. I didn't gain any more weight from my start weight. That high dose also made my anxiety worse bc I wasn't feeling well from the meds. Bad cycle, so if you try it start slow. The lowest dose is like 37.5mg. they started me on 150!
I take a low dose of Effexor and have liked the results and had no weight gain. 37.5 works well for my anxiety.
