I gained weight. I would also like more information from someone who could explain this phenomenon more accurately and tell us the reasons behind the weight gain and incidentally increased appetite. I was prescribed metformin for the usual reasons but i was also looking forward to the reduced weight and appetite, whereas the opposite occurred.

∙ 11y agoWhen I was diagnosed as a diabetic my endocrinologist put me on Metformin as he called it "the only weight-neutral Diabetes drug on the market."
Now with that being said, and after a year of taking it now, I haven't gained weight, but I've most certainly noticed that it's hard for me to drop pounds, but perhaps it affects every patient differently as medications tend to do.

∙ 8y agoSome very rare side effects when you stop taking Metformin include "Metabolism And Nutrition Disorders", but there is no evidence that Metformin makes you gain weight when you stop taking the drug.
PLEASE NOTE: A slower metabolism may lead to obesity.

Nope… If you are maintaining your calories by eating rice, you won’t gain weight else without taking rice if you consume more calories definitely you will gain weight. Weight gain depends up on our calorie intake and how many calories we are giving up.
