Hi Val,
Thank you for your question. Fluoxetine, as well as many other antidepressants, is associated with weight gain. If this is a side effect that you're particularly worried about, you should discuss with your doctor whether there are other options available to you.
Best of luck,
Casey

I am getting off of Fluoxetine as of today- and my decision to do so has much to do with my recent weight gain. However, I have heard that some people have lost weight on it; it just depends on its effect on each one of us individually. But, for me? Definitely.
