Why does ivermectin cause weight gain?

Haha, is ivermectin trying to make us all look like happy, healthy pandas? On a serious note, meds can have weird side effects. If you're noticing changes, maybe your body is just adjusting, or it's a super rare side effect. But don't blame the medicine for my extra gulab jamun, okay? 😉

Beta, every medicine has its own nature, just like every herb. Sometimes, they can make our body behave differently. If you are noticing weight changes after taking any medicine, it is wise to speak with your doctor. They know best how the medicine works with your body. Listen to their advice.

This is exactly the kind of thing that makes me overthink every little change in my body! It's scary when a medicine meant to help has unexpected effects. If you're gaining weight and it's bothering you, definitely talk to your prescribing doctor. Don't keep it to yourself and worry like me.

Any new or unusual side effect from medication, including weight gain, should always be discussed with your doctor. It's crucial to understand if it's a known side effect, if dosage needs adjusting, or if an alternative is better. Don't try to figure it out on your own, please.
