Theoretically, Escitalopram may be a drug with a higher risk of weight gain than Venlafaxine (which is due to the slightly different mechanism of action of the two substances). However, it should be remembered that each patient reacts differently to the treatment implemented and not everyone experiences the side effects described above. In addition, stabilizing the mood often results in a return to normality also in terms of nutrition. If the symptoms of depression were also eating disorders, the increase in appetite can be misinterpreted as the effect of the drug.
