Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this huge weight gain. Decrease calories alone would not help lose weight unless there is a constant level of physical exercise or increased. None of the above medications can cause a huge gain in weight. I will suggest that your doctors look into other conditions like hypothyroidism, Cushing's disease, etc as possible causes of this in addition to excess calories intake.

I hope this addresses your query fully. Feel free t ask for more information if needed. Thanks for using this panel for your questions.
