Is it true that Sertraline can cause weight gain? I take 100mg per day and I am hesitant to continue taking the medication because of this.

Yes, it is possible that Sertraline and similar medications can lead to weight gain. This is often due to an increase in appetite, which can result in consuming more calories than you burn. To help manage this, regular exercise and a balanced diet are important not only for maintaining a healthy weight but also for improving symptoms of anxiety and depression. It is recommended to speak with your healthcare provider if you have concerns about weight gain while taking this medication.
