I've always been very thin and no one in my fam has ever been heavy.. After 5 mths of abusing oxycoton I gained 50 pds very quickly. it had nothing to do with age as I was only 21.. Is it possible to gain weight on oxy?

Hello, Jenna! How are you?

Yes, it is possible. Narcotics are basically downers that slow your metabolism, so you don't burn as many calories as you did, before you were taking them.

This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

Is there anything else I can help with?
