Zen Retard contains the active ingredient Carbamazepine, which is an anticonvulsant and mood stabilizer.

And there have been some cases of it causing weight gain in some people that take it, but there really isn't a way to remedy it, as long as you are still taking the medication.

Do you eat a low-fat, healthy diet and get lots of exercise?
