Does tezspire cause weight gain?

My doctor recently suggested I might need to start on Tezspire for my severe asthma. I'm a bit worried about potential side effects, especially weight changes. Can anyone tell me if Tezspire typically causes weight gain?

I have been on Tezspire for my severe asthma for about a year now. While weight gain isn't a direct side effect listed, many people feel a bit sluggish or have lifestyle shifts. Staying active and watching your daily calorie intake will help you manage it.

I am on this medication and honestly, my appetite went up a bit initially! I just make sure to snack on healthier options like roasted makhana instead of heavy stuff. It's all about managing those cravings.

Tezspire is a biologic and doesn't typically cause weight gain like oral steroids do. You should be fine.

My doctor just recommended Tezspire for my asthma, but I'm really worried about gaining weight. Does the weight gain happen immediately or after a few months of treatment? I would love to hear from anyone else on it.

I can only speak from my personal journey with Tezspire. I haven't noticed any change in my weight since I started it six months ago. My energy levels have actually improved because my breathing is better.

No, clinical trials don't show Tezspire directly causing weight gain. Just maintain a regular light walking routine to stay fit.

I was super anxious about starting Tezspire because I overthink every single potential side effect. I kept weighing myself every day! But thankfully, my weight has stayed completely steady. I hope this brings you some peace of mind.

I have used many inhalers and injections in my life for breathing issues, and some of them did make me gain weight. But Tezspire has been much gentler on my body. Don't worry too much, breathing freely is much more important.
