Strattera boosted my metabolism - for a while... are there similar drugs? |
|
It didn't do much for my attention problem (it did work a bit), but I lost a lot of weight on it despite little change in appetite.
Are there similar drugs that boost the metabolism? (not adderall)

1. Topamax didn't boost my metabolism |
|
But for the first +/- 6 months I was on it it completely obliterated my appetite. I had to force myself to eat, and even when I did I could only eat a small amount at a time (perhaps 4-6 oz). I lost 74lbs overall.

Topamax did nothing for me, so go figure.

3. It did nothing for my friend Mike either |
|
And my sister tried it but couldn't get past 50mg a day due to side effects. Like any medication everybody has a different experience.

4. Wellbutrin has an appetite suppressant effect on me. |
|
It's probably not as strong a suppressant as Strattera, though.
