Question

Hello, Does amitryptiline make you lose weight? On the internet we talk about weight gain I am talking about the following medication: amitriptyline

Samantha Hui · Accepted Answer

Hello, Indeed, amitriptyline causes weight gain rather than the opposite, so your medication is probably not the cause. If the medication is suppressing your appetite, it may be causing weight loss that way. There is probably another cause, but you can't eliminate amitriptyline for sure. Don't hesitate to talk about it with your doctor. I look forward to hearing from you, Samantha Hui, pharmacy student Under the supervision of Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist
