Hi again, I was on that class of drugs, and gained weight. I've given up trying to get it off but then I have been on them since they came out almost 2 decades ago. My sis was on low dose zyprexa and once she was off the weight dropped off. Good luck to you

Not sure about that one.  I was on paxil, generic and went off it two weeks ago and cant lose any of the weight so i am guessing its going to take awhile and alot of exersice and calorie counting good luck.
