I don't use symbicort but looking at the reviews no one has actually said anything about weight gain.

And it is not stated as a known side effect (below), however it is not to say that Symbicort isn't causing your weight gain. Discuss this with your doctor at your next visit.
Check with your doctor if any of these most COMMON side effects persist or become bothersome when using Symbicort Aerosol:
Dizziness; dry mouth; headache; nausea; nervousness; stomach pain or upset; stuffy nose; throat irritation; tiredness; tremor; trouble sleeping; vomiting.
Seek medical attention right away if any of these SEVERE side effects occur when using Symbicort Aerosol:
