My doctor said that it was not a big problem with that, but I have been eating more lately and gaining some of the weight back that I was so proud of losing. :) Maybe it is just the holidays, but it seems like this medicine may be the culprit. Not sure though. If you take it or if you know of someone, please tell me if this is a problem.

If you mean Abilify (aripiprazole) my husband takes it, so I have his perscription information sheet in front of me...under side effects it does list change in weight, along with many others such as nausea, vomiting, dizziness, lightheadedness, headaches, blurred vision, and restlessness.

I take it, it can make you gain weight or loose weight. I believe that in trials people had an average 3 pound weight LOSS. But EVERYONE is different, it is certainly possible. Talk to your doctor more.

Taking abilify caused me to gain some weight. It depends on the person.
