Medications

It seems to be common knowledge that some medications can interfere
with low-carb diet weight loss. Would someone please tell me what
kinds of drugs or at least what categories of drugs have this effect?
I take several prescription drugs and I would just as soon not list
them all at the moment.

Thanks.

Ron

That's really not possible. Too many categories, and drugs within
each category will have different side effect profiles. If you won't
list the drugs then you can look each one up and see if weight effects
is listed under side effects. The most complete source for each drug
is their monograph, the drug manufacturer's package insert.

Take care,
Carmen

There is so much we don't know here. Like how long were you in
ketosis, did you start the medication recently, how long did it take
you to lose the weight (5lbs?) that you've already lost, have you lost
any weight in the last 2 weeks, etc. I would try eliminating the LC
bars, as they do have low impact carbs and with a slower metabolism,
they may be affecting you more than others.
