Does suboxone cause weight gain?

Since starting Suboxone therapy, I've gained a bit of weight, and I'm not sure why. My diet hasn't changed much. Can Suboxone cause weight gain, or is something else going on?

Yaar, weight changes toh thoda personal body type pe depend karta hai. Actually jab metabolism recover hota hai, toh appetite badh sakti hai and people gain some weight. It's not always the medicine itself, just the body healing.

I have seen many people in this group discuss this. Often, when you are starting to feel better, your appetite naturally increases. Just monitor your daily meals and keep a light walking routine, you will be fine.

I totally get it, managing weight while keeping up with medications can feel like an endless struggle. Please don't be too hard on yourself right now. Your recovery and general well-being are much more important than numbers on the scale.

Oh god, even I worry about weight fluctuations so much, every small change makes me feel something is wrong. If you are noticing sudden weight gain, maybe talk to your doc? Just to be absolutely safe and peaceful in your mind.
