Should I switch meds?
I was previously on 20 mg of Lexapro but was switched off about a year ago to Prozac because while I was doing well, I had some low energy and my psych thought this would be a better fit.
Over about the past year and a half I’ve gained weight - about 40 more pounds than I’d like. I’m trying to lose it but am wondering if the Prozac could be to blame as I’ve never had a weight problem before. Ive also had some increased anxiety in the past week but not terrible and it might just be due to coming out of the holidays.
Is this a silly reason to see ahout a med change? I’m not at a dangerous weight - I’m 5’6 and 170 lbs but should be closer to 130 - I just don’t like it.
