Well let's see, Celexa is an anti-depressent. As a therepeutic effect or side effect, no, it shouldn't cause weight issues. It can, however, indirectly manipulative moods which may lead to a change in appetite.
Trazodone is another anti-depressent but can also be used as a psychotic drug. It shouldn't produce any appetite changes or weight changes.
Advair and ventolin are bronchodilators. No they don't increase hunger. Actually, since ventolin (albuterol) is a sympathomimetic (mimics the sympathetic nervous system) a actually decrease in appetite should momentarily occur. This is just a hunch.
Now the synthroid could increase hunger but should decrease body weight. To explain, synthroid is for people with thyroid hormone deficiencies. Without thyroid hormones, peoples metabolisms are slowed to a dangerous rate. The person becomes lethargic, constipated, and develops other serious system complications associated with depressed metabolism. The synthroid should increase the rate of metabolism helping the person burn fat and energy more efficiently (slimming them down) and possibly creating hunger as a result to replenish themselves.
As for the immovane, i've never heard of it.
Hope this helps.

You must mean 1.75 of synthroid, Celexa may cause some weight gain, its not bad but simlar to paxil and prozac. You may get alittle bit of an increase in hunger but it will ease up after your on the meds for a while.

Some meds can increase body weight. It is advisable to eat balance diet rather than taking meds.

Thyroid disease is one of the most common health problems we face today. From a practical standpoint, there are many ways to approach this issue. Learn here https://tr.im/fWRys
Hypothyroidism, or underactive thyroid, is a very common problem, and there are many reasons for this, including drinking chlorinated and fluoridated water, and eating brominated flour.
Chlorine, fluoride, and bromine are all in the same family as iodine, and can displace iodine in your thyroid gland.
Secondly, many people simply aren't getting enough iodine in their diet to begin with. The amount you get from iodized salt is just barely enough to prevent you from getting a goiter.

Certain Meds make you gain weight, but I dont think any you listed have any affect, unless any of them contain steroids. In that case, yes, they would increase your body weight.

Yes certain medications increase weight and medications such as risperdal do not make you feel hungry more often and don't make you feel as full as usual so you over eat making you gain more weight.
