Question
ive been taking remeron for 2 weeks and gained 10 lks.does it eventually stop or is weight gain continious
Hi Howard . . .
Unfortunately, the weight gain from Remeron is totally unpredictable. Some people stop gaining weight after 2-3 weeks and others keep gaining weight no matter how long they continue to take the drug.
Best regards . . .
Ivan
