Does journavx cause weight gain?

Honestly, weight change can happen with these new meds, but we can manage it easily. Just keep some simple homemade snacks ready like roasted chana so you don't overeat. A daily evening walk for 30 minutes in your colony is a simple, free solution that works wonders.

Medication-induced weight changes depend on your body's individual metabolic profile. It's best not to self-diagnose or stop the treatment based on internet threads. Please consult your prescribing doctor to understand the actual clinical study data and what precautions you should take.

Yes, this is a very common doubt to have. I always find keeping a daily food and weight diary helps track if there is any real change.

I completely understand why you are feeling anxious about this, weight changes can be so stressful to think about. I also spent nights reading up on side effects before starting my therapy. Take a deep breath, it might not even affect you the same way it affects others.

If your doc has given you the green light to exercise, don't worry too much about weight. Just start tracking your daily steps and aim for at least 8k steps first. Even a brisk walk in the morning can easily counter any mild metabolic changes from these meds.

My sister told me to drink warm water with lemon every morning to keep the weight off while on new medicines. It is a nice practice, but I still believe we must follow whatever the doctor says. They know our health history best, so ask them during your next visit.

When I was prescribed this at Max Hospital, I straight away asked my specialist about the side effects. It is much better to get a clear answer from your doctor instead of guessing. They can adjust the dosage or suggest an alternative if weight gain is actually a known issue.
