YES! Everone I know (that took it) gained weight on Prozac. I was on it for PMS for a yr and gained at least 30 lbs (I stopped weighing a few months ago). I was in great physical condition when I started it, but became so tired w/fatigue AND insomnia, that exercise was the last thing I felt like doing. I was on 20mg/day and quit cold turkey. I was wondering how long it takes for it to get out of your system. It sounds like St Johns Wort has help others. I have been off it for ~6 weeks. I have a tremendous amt of stress in my life now-but I struggle w/depression now-whereas I never really had a problem w/it before. I'm sure this huge gut isn't helping...and all the wt settled in my gut.
and like the others my MD blew off the fact that the Prozac was causing my wt gain.
