Does neurontin cause weight gain?

I completely understand how frustrating it is when medicines make you gain weight. While you cannot stop the medicine, drinking ginger water and chewing on fennel seeds helped me control the sudden food cravings it causes.

My neurologist confirmed that gabapentin, which is Neurontin, can alter metabolic rate and increase carbohydrate cravings. He advised me to track my food and avoid simple carbs to prevent weight gain. Definitely discuss this with your physician before making changes.

Haan na, Neurontin se weight thoda badh jata hai, actually. Appetite bohot zyada ho jati hai tablet lene ke baad. Try to eat salads and fiber rich food jab bhook lage toh control ho jayega.

I noticed some weight gain on Neurontin but also got my thyroid tested to be absolutely sure it wasn't a hormonal issue. It is always wise to get regular blood work done and let your doctor guide you on the exact cause.

I was on Neurontin for nerve pain and did notice a slight increase in weight due to water retention. But don't worry, once my course ended and I stayed active, the extra weight came off quite easily. Just focus on healing first!

Haan babu, mere padosi ko bhi yeh dava chal rahi thi aur unka sharir thoda bhari ho gaya tha. Aap chinta mat karo, thoda subah sham ghoomne jaya karo aur meetha kam khao, sab theek rahega.
