The article presents a study which identifies the association of weight gain with tricyclic antidepressant and certain antipsychotic medications. It was found out that weight gain is linked with reductions in resting metabolic rate and diet-induced thermogenesis. Researchers cite that medication-induced weight gain is a significant problem for many treated patients, and the weight promoting effects of different psychiatric drugs should be considered in drug selection. |
