Re: Has anyone lost weight on Avandia?From: Jen (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu, 22 Jun 2000 14:09:19 -0500 (CDT)
Barbi- I am so confused. Under medical treatments on this website I looked under Avandia and it said that it helps with weight loss. When I got the Avandia from the Pharmacy it said that it can cause weight gain. I have been on Avandia for about 3 months now and haven't lost anything. I have been doing weight watchers too, but sometimes slipping. I don't know if I haven't lost because of the Avandia or me. Should I ask my dr. to try me on Met? She was hesitant last time because of the side effects. What do you think? At Mon, 19 Jun 2000, Barbi wrote: > >Jen, > >I was on Avandia for 1 month and gained weight.
