Answer 4

some medictions can, yes, but it depends on the individual. do not stop taking any medication perscribed to you because you are gaining weight, and refusing to take a medication you really need could cause more problems than gaining weight.

Zyprexa is so notorious for causing people to gain weight that the maker developed a program specificly for people who must take it and have to deal with the weight gain. I gained 30 pounds in 30 days before I quit taking it.

Answer 5

Yes they do cause weight gain, so you really need to watch your calorie intake and get exercise. I take Xenix but it's for my anxiety attacks. I didn't think you had a problem there.
