 [ Symptoms ] what does high mid percentage in blood mean [ Disease ] this is a great question because actually the two drugs mentioned wellbutrin and geodon actually can cause some weight gain so i would actually ask this patient number one are they telling their doctors that they    they may be seeing two different doctors are they aware that they are taking these medications and do they have a medication list because of the side effect profile we are adding a medication that we really probably do not need i would like to be able to find a more non drug option such as changing their diet increasing their fluid intake so we want to make sure that that patient understands that the pharmacist by looking at their medication list when they are coming to visit the pharmacy will be able to point that out and say hey you are getting an unnecessary medication for side effect of two drugs and maybe one of them they may not necessarily need so that is where the pharmacist can actually contact the physicians or healthcare provider and say doctor are you aware of this this happens all the time in the pharmacy i can not tell you how many times i say to patients does your doctor know well i went to this doctor for this medicine but this doctor does not know about this one everyone needs to know about it that is why that medication list is so important not only is it help the pharmacist but bring it to all your other doctor appointments that way they can see everything that everyone is prescribing and we can avoid medication errors and unnecessary use i also have been on sooo many anti depressants and other meds for bipolar ii and always gained weight i am a 40 year old woman who is 51 tall and at that time almost 150 pounds but i was just prescribed a very new anti depressant called fetzima there is not any generic version as of yet i am on the max dose at 80mg daily but add lamictal adderall xanax seroquel ambien xr propranolol imitrex injections cambia liquid spinx nasal spray and lastly phenergen 25mg prn migraine with vomiting but my point which i apologize for going off in so many directions thanks to the adderall 60mg daily the fetzima is supposedly much better as far as weight is concerned it actually lists that weight loss is more common than weight gain and while i would never suggest anyone to be on a stimulantadderall when i have never been addadhd i take it daily and in a pretty decent dosage to somehow get me to function thru the day it is hard to figure out as the patient why a doctor would put you on a lot of uppers and then you need downers it is crazy but with the adderall i have been on for almost 3 months and in all honestly i now weigh 103 pounds so over 45 plus pounds
