Can trintellix cause weight loss?

It is generally considered weight-neutral, but some people might lose a little weight if they experience nausea as a side effect. I always suggest keeping a clean, home-cooked vegetarian diet to manage any stomach discomfort when starting new medications.

My doctor prescribed this to me last year. My mother advised me to drink ragi porridge to keep my strength up, but the medicine itself didn't cause any major weight changes. It is much better than older medicines in that regard.

Haha, I wish it was a magic weight loss pill! Sadly, it mostly just keeps your weight exactly where it is. If you do lose weight, it is probably because you are too busy nauseous to look at food during the first week.

I had some mild nausea when I started Trintellix, which made me eat a bit less and lose a couple of kilos. But once my body adjusted after two weeks, my appetite came back to normal. It’s actually very manageable!

At my age, my metabolism is so slow that even looking at water makes me gain weight! Trintellix didn't make me lose any weight, but thank god it didn't add any extra kilos to my belly either.

I totally get it, worrying about weight changes when starting a new antidepressant is so stressful. Trintellix is usually very gentle on the scale, but everyone's body reacts differently. Please discuss any changes you notice with your doctor.
