Medication Weight Gain

Description

Drug weight gain, also known as medication weight gain, medication-induced weight gain, or iatrogenic obesity, refers to the unexpected increase in body weight that can occur as a side effect of certain prescription drugs. Many people taking antidepressants, antipsychotics, diabetes medications, steroids, or even some antihistamines may notice significant weight changes, often without realizing that their medicine is the cause. This condition is quite common—up to 15% of weight gain cases are linked to prescription medications—and can impact both physical health and emotional well-being. If you’re struggling with drug weight gain, there are solutions such as prescription weight loss medications (sometimes called "diet pills") and clinical programs in South Korea that can be tailored to help you regain control of your health and confidence. Always consult a medical professional to find the safest, most effective plan for your unique needs.
