You just got some very good information from mistipip...wellbutrin is the one that everyone switches too. I don't have as much info re citalopram, but it is probably another.
I have been on almost every depression pill known to man over the past 10 years and I can say the only prescriptions that did not cause me weight gain are the ones i'm currently on, which are citalopram and wellbutrin sr. Hope this helps, Misti
I love effexor and cymbalta.
They actually supress the appetite. I also find that my cravings for sugary carbs have disappeared. now I find things like salads and other vegies appealing.
how long have you been doing this? I am on 275 effexor and 150 long acting wellbutrin and my starch cravings do me in, So i will research if cymbalta could substitute for the wellbutrin which acts differently that effexor and the cocktail is otherwise acceptable. But if you know somethinghere about cymbalta v. Wellbutrin, I'd love to know.
