Does cosentyx cause weight gain?

Some patients on Cosentyx do report a slight increase in weight, often because their underlying inflammation is reducing and they feel better. It is always a good practice to keep a weekly log of your weight and share it with your doctor at your next checkup.

Maintaining a stable weight is very important for managing blood pressure and overall health. If a medication like Cosentyx is causing changes, it is vital to balance it with a low-salt diet and light physical activity. Definitely consult your physician for advice.

I used to ignore minor physical changes when I started new treatments, which was a big mistake. If you are noticing sudden weight gain after starting Cosentyx, please don't ignore it. Go get your thyroid and metabolic panel checked by your doctor.

Drinking warm lemon water in the morning and eating light home-cooked food can help keep your digestion active. However, if the weight gain is due to a strong prescription medicine like Cosentyx, home remedies won't be enough. Please seek your doctor's opinion.
