I started using the Secuado transdermal patch about 6 weeks ago. It is the dermal form of Saphris. How much weight gain is expected. I seem to be gaining weight even though I am eating healthy.
Saphris - How much weight gain is expected to occur on Secuado patch?

Hi, Deborah!
This may be helpful:
"Very common (10% or greater of users): Weight gain of at least 7% (up to 13.1% of users)
Common (1% to 10% of users): Increased appetite, weight increased"
So up to 13% of users may gain weight from their baseline. For instance, 7% of 120lbs is 8.4lbs. Up to 10% of users may experience some weight gain but probably less than 7%.
Best regards,
Wildcat
