[quote=Anonymous]I thought I remembered a post a couple of weeks ago regarding gaufacine and weight gain, but I can no longer find it. My son has gained a lot of weight these past 2 years (mainly in his stomach area). He used to be a stick and within a year (now two) he gained a signifcant amount. He is not very active (we try but he resists most physical activity) so I assumed it was from that. He doesn't eat terribly and often skips lunch due to the stimulant he is on. Anyway, I realized after seeing the post about gaunfacice that we started uping his dosage about 2 years ago and since then he has steadily gained weight and a lot. We meet with his doctor in a week, but wonder if others have experienced this? I had no idea this could be a side effect till I saw the post on DCUM and feel terribly if this could be causing some of his weight gain.[/quote]
