linda (# 1)- Weight gain and high cholesterol are not side effects of this medication. She should always read the printed information that come with her prescriptions after each refill. In case of any changes or additions that have been added to drug reactions or interactions. Weight gain can be caused by getting older,thyroid imbalance, menopause,etc. Also high cholesterol is usually inherited by family.My spouses parents both have high cholesterol. My spouse does as well. Also discussing these things with your physician is recommended. A lot of even healthy foods have cholesterol (nuts). Do to pandemic and not moving around and going out as much as you previously did or increase in more food than normal bc your home more can be a cause as well. As a nurse these are just some of the things I would look into. This is just a basic list. I hope this helps.

Most people that gain weight usually want to find something to blame! Funny how everyone who has gained weight eats healthy and exercises ha ha yeah right!! I have a rubbish diet I'll happily admit it, think people need to be a bit more honest!!

Weight gain isn't based on energy-in-energy-out. It's based on the type of carbohydrate / sugars we stuff into our pie holes. So don't think it's you can't exercise. Just eat low carb.
