What are some of the more effective medications for bipolar disorder? Preferably ones with little to no weight gain as a side effect. I am looking to switch off of the one I am on now, and can't seem to find any quality information on medication.

Hello @abi1541 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Your concern about weight gain as a side effect is common and understandable.

There was actually an existing discussion in the community on this same topic already, so you will see I've moved your post there in order to connect you with members such as @jh1 @amberpep @mrser52 @healthytoday and @rainer.

What medication are you presently on?
