Maddison Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 Looked at their website and they list weight gain as a side effect! http://www.saphris.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benway Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 The search for the perfect anti-psychotic goes on. I saw from your other post you take olanzapine, I can't blame you at all wanting one that works without weight gain. I was always 9-10 st until i went onto olanz- i shot up to 15.7 st and my main hobby was eating I felt like i was in a fat suit... but you know looking back i was very unwell. The weight gain is temporary (but v unpleasant i agree) When i came off olanz i went onto seroquel, and it isn't as bad, appetite wise. (not that i recc any anti-p but thats another post) Wishing you well, xx am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
