UpdatedMy wife started taking this drug 4 months ago and has been gaing weight-we think it is from the drug?
Re: Verwon (# 4)
I agree and disagree from not being active so much may cause weight gain yet since I started taking methocarbamol 750 mg I seem to be putting on the weight rapidly which I have never had a problem with so I do believe methcarmol does make one gain weight
I think it does make u gain weight.
I started taken them and my laying around at times hasn't changed before and after taken them
I weighed 155 and after 3 weeks ive gained 15lbs. And i never gain weight
Re: SR (# 9)
Same as. I stopped taking and I have lost the weight
Re: M8chele (# 18)
Not being disrespectful but if you only weigh 87llbs you are very underweight ten pounds would do you the world of good! Unless you're 3foot 6!!

Re: Brit (# 20)
I agree in going off of it 2 see the difference, because I have stayed at the same weigh 4 yrs ,till I started take this med
Re: Jul (# 21)
I agree, have put on 10 pounds so far. Going to stop
I've also have been on methocarbamol 4 about 5 mos and went from 128 to 132 so I think it does cause weight gain.
I’ve been taking this medication regularly for about 5 months and I’ve gained weight especially in my face chin. This weight gain is disproportionate to my body.
Re: Tams (# 10)
Yes I agree I feel hungry all the time. Also I have gain weight I am going to have my doctor change my med to something else that works no one wants to put on extra pounds.
To crazy cat lady:
I am a retired nurse. I weigh myself every morning. This drug causes weight gain for me. It also makes my tinnitus
get more pronounced.
