Does ajovy cause weight gain?

Question

My doctor suggested Ajovy as a new treatment option for my chronic migraines. I'm trying to gather all information before deciding. Does Ajovy cause weight gain as a side effect?

I know exactly how stressful it is to start a new injection and worry about your body changing. When I was prescribed Ajovy, I spent nights reading reviews and got so anxious. For me, there was no noticeable weight gain, and getting relief from those horrible migraines was totally worth it.

I agree, I have been using Ajovy for six months now and my weight has remained completely stable. Just focus on your health and keep a simple food diary to track things.

Vikram Malhotra · Answer

I literally panicked when I gained two kilos in the first month of my Ajovy shot, but it turned out to be just water retention and lack of activity. Once I started walking regularly again, my weight came back to normal. The medicine itself doesn't make you fat.

Amit Sharma · Answer

Weight gain is not a common side effect of Ajovy in clinical studies. Don't worry, most people tolerate it very well.

Sneha Roy · Answer

I am also the kind of person who checks the scale every single day when I start any treatment. While weight gain isn't a listed side effect for Ajovy, sometimes changes in our migraine patterns can affect our appetite. If you feel very anxious about it, please discuss it with your neurologist to ease your mind.
