Can Butrans Transdermal Patch Cause Significant Weight Gain?
Butrans not known for weight gain
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Buprenorphine is not reported to cause significant weight gain. However they 'may' interact with other body hormones thus may hinder the weight loss efforts. The interactions at cellular levels are highly debatable in every individual.
I think what you do is correct, the calorie consumption is much less than calorie expense. This is the theory and when it comes to practice it may take much longer time to see the results. Many people quit their wt loss practices just before they start losing weight. I think you should be clever enough to continue your hardwork towards the goal.
At every effort I suggest a local expert's advices from dietitian, physical trainer and physician.
That sounds like a right plan
Detailed Answer:
Ok, all that sounds like a good plan to work. Its good news that you have no withdrawal effects off patch. That is uncommon. We always advice to go off the patch very slowly.
All the best.
