amitriptyline and weight gain::Increased appetite has also been reported, and l guess the main reason for the weight gain.
Surely taking water retention pills and not eating anymore than usual should stop any weight gain?
Ovbviously we all react to meds differently, but is there anyone out there that has something positive to say about the drug and how they managed avoiding the weight gain?
